After Action Report
In Miami, the Pistons survived the Heat 109-106. Pistons torched the Heat on the offensive end. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Tonight's Heat utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
