After Action Report

In a track meet, the Heat survived the Cavaliers 125-122. Heat's offense had its way with the Cavaliers. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Heat's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Cavaliers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
