After Action Report
The Heat took care of the Hawks 102-89. Lineup balance gave the Heat a clear synergy edge. Fresh off a statement win, the Heat stayed locked in; Heat's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
