After Action Report

The Heat outlasted the SuperSonics 118-109. The SuperSonics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Heat carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 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.
