After Action Report
The Heat snuck past the Cavaliers 104-101. Every possession went the Heat way. The Heat came in with something to prove after a loss; Heat's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Cavaliers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
