After Action Report

The Lakers survived the Heat 120-116. The Lakers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Heat owned the glass, generating extra possessions; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Heat. Heat's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Heat · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
