After Action Report
The Cavaliers blew the doors off the Heat 128-91. The Heat had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Cavaliers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Heat's old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. Cavaliers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
