After Action Report
The Heat snuck past the Bulls 126-124. Heat's starting five clicked while the Bulls looked disjointed. The Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Heat's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
