After Action Report
The Heat rolled past the Wizards 135-108. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
