After Action Report
The Heat held off the Cavaliers 108-99. The Cavaliers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; Heat's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
