After Action Report
The Heat downed the Celtics 112-94. The tempo dragged the Celtics into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Heat's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. The Celtics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
