After Action Report
The Heat survived the Trail Blazers 106-104. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Heat. The Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep; shots just aren't falling for the Trail Blazers lately. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
