After Action Report

The Cavaliers fended off the Kings 116-110. The Cavaliers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Cavaliers came in with something to prove after a loss; the Cavaliers bent the defense out of shape from deep. Early returns: the Cavaliers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
