After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat survived the Spurs 123-122. The tempo dragged the Spurs into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Heat's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
