After Action Report

The Hawks took care of the Heat 98-85. Every possession went the Hawks way. Hawks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.

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.
  • 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.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
