After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Heat survived the Nets 116-114. Heat controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Nets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
