After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat squeaked past the Jazz 119-116 in overtime. The Jazz had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Jazz played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Jazz pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Jazz's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Jazz · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
