After Action Report
The Nets ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 131-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Cavaliers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
