After Action Report

The Heat held off the Bulls 102-95. Every possession went the Heat way. Heat's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
