After Action Report
The Heat buried the Pacers 114-87. The Pacers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Heat stayed locked in; Pacers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
