After Action Report

In Miami, the Heat survived the Pistons 110-107. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Heat ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
