After Action Report
The Heat blew the doors off the Knicks 110-89. Heat's scorers couldn't be contained. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
