After Action Report
The Heat pulled away from the Celtics 105-88. The better team simply showed up tonight. Heat's defenders refused to give up clean looks; Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
