After Action Report
The Heat outlasted the Pistons 104-85. The Pistons couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Heat. The Heat came in with something to prove after a loss; Heat's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
