After Action Report
The Cavaliers snuck past the Bulls 104-99. Ugly basketball, but the Cavaliers did just enough. The Cavaliers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Cavaliers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
