After Action Report

The Heat pulled away from the SuperSonics 126-110. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Heat's outside barrage was a constant threat; second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics. Whispers of a SuperSonics locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Heat per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
