After Action Report
The Heat ran roughshod over the Suns 126-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Heat's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
