After Action Report
The Hawks handled the Heat 94-80. Ugly basketball, but the Hawks did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; the Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke. Heat's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
