After Action Report

The Cavaliers buried the Heat 124-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Cavaliers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. The Cavaliers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
