After Action Report
The Magic squeaked past the Heat 118-114 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Heat owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Heat's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
