After Action Report
The Timberwolves demolished the Cavaliers 124-90. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. Timberwolves' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; the Cavaliers are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
