After Action Report
The Cavaliers squeaked past the Magic 92-91. Ugly basketball, but the Cavaliers did just enough. The Cavaliers came in with something to prove after a loss; Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Magic locker-room rift aren't helping. Style points be damned.
