After Action Report
The Cavaliers demolished the Rockets 128-101. The Cavaliers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Fresh off a statement win, the Cavaliers stayed locked in; Cavaliers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Cavaliers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
