After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Nets outlasted the Cavaliers 115-105. Nets' offense had its way with the Cavaliers. The Nets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Nets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
