After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Heat knocked off the Suns 110-95. Every possession went the Heat way. Heat's outside barrage was a constant threat; the Suns came in with something to prove after a loss. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
