After Action Report
The Heat outlasted the Wizards 103-96. Ugly basketball, but the Heat did just enough. The Heat carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; fresh off a statement win, the Wizards stayed locked in. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
