After Action Report
The Cavaliers handled the Pistons 115-101. The breakneck pace played right into Cavaliers' hands. The Cavaliers are in a full-on tailspin; Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
