After Action Report
The Cavaliers took care of the Raptors 117-105. The Cavaliers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Cavaliers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Cavaliers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Raptors · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
