After Action Report

In a track meet, the Heat outlasted the Pacers 116-110. Heat controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Pacers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
