After Action Report
The Cavaliers rolled past the Hawks 117-87. Cavaliers' offense had its way with the Hawks. Second-chance points piled up for the Cavaliers; Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
