After Action Report
The Heat handled the Pistons 124-109. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
