After Action Report
The Clippers buried the Heat 119-93. The tempo dragged the Heat into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Clippers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Clippers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. The Heat rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.
