After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat ran roughshod over the Knicks 120-83. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Heat stayed locked in; the Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Knicks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
