After Action Report

In Detroit, the Heat squeaked past the Pistons 106-105. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
