After Action Report
The Heat buried the Clippers 117-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Heat stayed locked in; the Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
