The Cavaliers rolled past the Trail Blazers 109-82. Every possession went the Cavaliers way. The Trail Blazers are in a full-on tailspin; Trail Blazers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
