After Action Report
The Spurs ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 127-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. Spurs' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Cavaliers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
