After Action Report
The Celtics squeaked past the Heat 117-112. The Heat had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Celtics are in a full-on tailspin; the Celtics bent the defense out of shape from deep.

- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
