After Action Report
The Lakers blew the doors off the Heat 131-101. The breakneck pace played right into Lakers' hands. Lakers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Heat's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Heat's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
