After Action Report
The Heat snuck past the Suns 97-95. The Suns couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Heat. The Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep; Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
