After Action Report
The Warriors downed the Cavaliers 102-83. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Warriors' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Warriors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
