After Action Report

The Cavaliers ran roughshod over the Nets 115-90. Cavaliers' stops on the defensive end set the tone. Second-chance points piled up for the Cavaliers; the Nets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Cavaliers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Cavaliers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
