After Action Report

In a track meet, the Heat snuck past the SuperSonics 114-109. The tempo dragged the SuperSonics into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
