After Action Report
In a track meet, the Cavaliers handled the Nuggets 109-94. Cavaliers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nuggets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Nuggets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
