After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat fended off the Pacers 109-103. Heat torched the Pacers on the offensive end. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Heat's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
