After Action Report
The Cavaliers blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 119-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. The Cavaliers came in with something to prove after a loss; Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Early returns: the Cavaliers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
