After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers pulled away from the Jazz 120-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Cavaliers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. 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 · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
