After Action Report

The Wizards snuck past the Heat 103-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Wizards' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone; Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Wizards · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
