After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers buried the Heat 145-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Cavaliers; Cavaliers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Cavaliers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
