After Action Report
The Warriors blew the doors off the Heat 123-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Warriors cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Warriors; the Warriors played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping. The Heat rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Warriors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
