After Action Report
The Heat rolled past the Knicks 116-84. Heat's offense had its way with the Knicks. The Heat owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Heat carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
