In a track meet, the Heat rolled past the Magic 134-94. Heat controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
