After Action Report
The Heat fended off the Celtics 108-101. Heat torched the Celtics on the offensive end. The Heat looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Heat's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Heat · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
