After Action Report

The Cavaliers rolled past the Raptors 104-77. Ugly basketball, but the Cavaliers did just enough. The Cavaliers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Cavaliers pushed the pace until the other side broke. Cavaliers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Cavaliers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
