After Action Report
In a track meet, the Heat ran roughshod over the Hornets 141-104. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Fresh off a statement win, the Heat stayed locked in; the Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
