After Action Report
The Heat rolled past the Knicks 125-99. Heat torched the Knicks on the offensive end. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Knicks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
