After Action Report
In a track meet, the Heat handled the Pacers 138-128. Heat torched the Pacers on the offensive end. The Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke; Pacers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
