After Action Report

The Heat survived the Bucks 105-101. The Heat won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Heat. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Bucks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 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.
