After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat survived the Pistons 120-115. The tempo dragged the Pistons into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Heat.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
