The Heat squeaked past the Trail Blazers 121-118. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Trail Blazers bent the defense out of shape from deep.
What tipped it
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
