After Action Report
The Cavaliers handled the Celtics 107-95. The Cavaliers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Cavaliers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. Cavaliers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
