After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat blew the doors off the Cavaliers 127-93. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Heat played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
