After Action Report
The Cavaliers snuck past the Knicks 117-113. Cavaliers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Shots just aren't falling for the Cavaliers lately; Cavaliers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Early returns: the Cavaliers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
