After Action Report

In Miami, the Heat squeaked past the Raptors 102-99. The Raptors couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Heat. Heat's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; second-chance points piled up for the Raptors. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
