After Action Report
In Miami, the Hornets downed the Heat 111-101. The tempo dragged the Heat into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Heat couldn't shake the cold spell. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
