After Action Report
The Heat took care of the Pacers 110-98. Every possession went the Heat way. Heat's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; the Pacers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Pacers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
