After Action Report
In Miami, the Pacers blew the doors off the Heat 131-100. The Pacers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Pacers came in with something to prove after a loss; shots just aren't falling for the Heat lately. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Heat utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
