After Action Report

In a track meet, the Heat snuck past the Bulls 126-122. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Heat; Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bulls · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
