After Action Report
The Heat downed the Cavaliers 101-91. Heat's offense had its way with the Cavaliers. The Heat owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
