After Action Report

In Cleveland, the Cavaliers buried the Nets 130-98. Cavaliers' offense had its way with the Nets. Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; second-chance points piled up for the Nets. Cavaliers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
