After Action Report
The Heat held off the Hornets 111-103. Every possession went the Heat way. The Heat couldn't shake the cold spell; Hornets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.
What tipped it
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hornets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
