After Action Report
The Cavaliers buried the SuperSonics 127-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the SuperSonics played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Cavaliers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
