After Action Report

The Heat outlasted the SuperSonics 114-105. The better team simply showed up tonight. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Heat; Heat's old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's SuperSonics utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
