In a track meet, the Cavaliers buried the Warriors 136-106. Cavaliers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Cavaliers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it

- Warriors · 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.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
