After Action Report
The Heat pulled away from the Nuggets 113-101. The tempo dragged the Nuggets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Nuggets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Nuggets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Nuggets utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
