The Cavaliers demolished the Knicks 129-93. Cavaliers' offense had its way with the Knicks. Second-chance points piled up for the Cavaliers; Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. Cavaliers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
