After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers held off the Nets 119-111. Cavaliers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Cavaliers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
