After Action Report
The Cavaliers blew the doors off the Spurs 116-95. Every possession went the Cavaliers way. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Cavaliers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. Cavaliers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
