After Action Report

The Heat demolished the Clippers 122-102. The Clippers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Heat's old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
