After Action Report
The Spurs blew the doors off the Heat 132-112. The tempo dragged the Heat into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Spurs. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. The Heat rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Heat · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
