After Action Report

The Heat ran roughshod over the Mavericks 124-93. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
