After Action Report
The Suns outlasted the Heat 108-97. The better team simply showed up tonight. Suns' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
