After Action Report
The Heat rolled past the Cavaliers 118-89. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Cavaliers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
