After Action Report
The Cavaliers buried the Hawks 103-83. Ugly basketball, but the Cavaliers did just enough. The Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Cavaliers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It broke open after the break.
