After Action Report
The Cavaliers pulled away from the 76ers 134-124. The tempo dragged the 76ers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a 76ers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 76ers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
