After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat outlasted the Knicks 102-92. The better team simply showed up tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; Heat's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- 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.
