After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers blew the doors off the Hornets 124-91. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Cavaliers; Cavaliers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
