After Action Report
The Heat outlasted the Pacers 112-95. Heat's offense had its way with the Pacers. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 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.
