After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers fended off the Rockets 134-126. The Cavaliers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Cavaliers are in a full-on tailspin; Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
