After Action Report

The Heat handled the Bobcats 109-98. Heat's offense had its way with the Bobcats. The Heat owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Heat couldn't shake the cold spell. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Bobcats · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
