After Action Report
The Kings buried the Heat 118-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Kings cashed in. The Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Heat's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.
