After Action Report
The Heat blew the doors off the Hornets 107-86. Every possession went the Heat way. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Heat. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
