After Action Report
The Heat squeaked past the Suns 91-87. The Heat won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Heat's outside barrage was a constant threat; shots just aren't falling for the Suns lately. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
