After Action Report

The Heat pulled away from the Spurs 107-94. The better team simply showed up tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Heat stayed locked in; Heat's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
