After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat held off the Lakers 114-107. Heat's offense had its way with the Lakers. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it

- Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
