After Action Report
The Cavaliers rolled past the Jazz 139-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Cavaliers lately; Cavaliers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Tonight's Jazz utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
