After Action Report
The Heat took care of the Rockets 133-116. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Heat's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
