After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers blew the doors off the Mavericks 129-97. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Cavaliers' outside barrage was a constant threat; Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Cavaliers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
