After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat blew the doors off the Bulls 118-84. Heat torched the Bulls on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
