After Action Report
The Cavaliers pulled away from the 76ers 106-87. The 76ers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Cavaliers. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Cavaliers stayed locked in. Early returns: the Cavaliers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
