After Action Report

The 76ers buried the Heat 124-82. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the 76ers cashed in. 76ers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Heat's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
