After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat outlasted the Nuggets 103-90. Execution down the stretch made the difference. 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. Style points be damned.
