After Action Report
The Cavaliers blew the doors off the Hornets 119-93. The Cavaliers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Cavaliers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Hornets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
