After Action Report

The Hawks pulled away from the Heat 131-113. Hawks' scorers couldn't be contained. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Hawks. The Heat looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Heat rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 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.
