After Action Report

The Heat handled the Jazz 113-94. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
