After Action Report

The Heat edged the Kings 112-106. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. The Heat ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Heat bench chemistry carried them.

  • Kings · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Heat · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
