After Action Report

The Heat handled the Knicks 106-96. The better team simply showed up tonight. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Heat; the Knicks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
