After Action Report

In Miami, the Heat demolished the Wizards 144-92. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Heat. The Wizards looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Wizards' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
