After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers rolled past the Bobcats 105-79. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Cavaliers couldn't shake the cold spell; the Cavaliers bent the defense out of shape from deep. Bobcats' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bobcats · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
