After Action Report
The Heat outlasted the Pacers 109-100. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Heat stayed locked in. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Pacers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
