After Action Report
The Heat squeaked past the Hawks 116-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. The Heat couldn't shake the cold spell; the Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke.
What tipped it
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
