After Action Report

The Heat squeaked past the Magic 111-107. The tempo dragged the Magic into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
