After Action Report

The Cavaliers held off the Rockets 126-118. Cavaliers torched the Rockets on the offensive end. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Cavaliers stayed locked in. Rockets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Cavaliers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
