After Action Report

The Cavaliers blew the doors off the Nets 139-111. The Nets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Cavaliers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. Cavaliers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

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.
  • Nets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
