After Action Report

In Cleveland, the Heat squeaked past the Cavaliers 105-104. The tempo dragged the Cavaliers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
