After Action Report

In Miami, the SuperSonics stunned the Heat 126-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. The SuperSonics pushed the pace until the other side broke; second-chance points piled up for the Heat. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
