After Action Report
The Heat handled the Cavaliers 109-95. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Heat carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
