After Action Report

The Heat survived the Knicks 126-121. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Knicks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
