After Action Report
The Cavaliers outlasted the Knicks 104-98. The better team simply showed up tonight. Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Knicks' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
