After Action Report
The Heat ran roughshod over the Magic 144-103. Heat's offense had its way with the Magic. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Magic are in a full-on tailspin. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Magic · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
