After Action Report
The Cavaliers held off the Heat 124-115. The breakneck pace played right into Cavaliers' hands. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Heat's skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Heat · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Heat · 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.
