After Action Report
The Heat squeaked past the Jazz 100-99. Ugly basketball, but the Heat did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Jazz rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
