After Action Report
The Heat buried the Pistons 124-100. Heat controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
