After Action Report

The Heat rolled past the Nuggets 109-71. Heat torched the Nuggets on the offensive end. The Heat owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Heat carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Nuggets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
