After Action Report
The Heat survived the Cavaliers 119-114. Heat's positional fit overwhelmed the Cavaliers rotation. The Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep; Cavaliers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed.
What tipped it
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
