After Action Report

In a track meet, the Heat survived the Kings 130-127. The Kings had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Heat.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • 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 · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
