After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Heat blew the doors off the Lakers 137-113. The tempo dragged the Lakers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Heat. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Garbage time started early.
