After Action Report

The Kings demolished the Heat 118-77. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. The Kings owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Kings couldn't shake the cold spell. The Heat looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
