After Action Report
The Heat handled the Bulls 108-89. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Heat's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
