After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat snuck past the Trail Blazers 118-117 in overtime. Heat's offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Trail Blazers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
