After Action Report
The Heat snuck past the Knicks 105-104. The Heat won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Knicks' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
