After Action Report
The Heat took care of the Nets 105-93. Ugly basketball, but the Heat did just enough. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Heat played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
