After Action Report

The Heat outlasted the Raptors 120-107. Heat controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Heat's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; the Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
