After Action Report
The Cavaliers blew the doors off the Rockets 114-90. Every possession went the Cavaliers way. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Cavaliers stayed locked in. Early returns: the Cavaliers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
