After Action Report
The Heat squeaked past the Bulls 111-108. The breakneck pace played right into Heat's hands. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; the Heat carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
