After Action Report
In a track meet, the Nets demolished the Cavaliers 121-98. Nets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Nets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; shots just aren't falling for the Cavaliers lately. The Cavaliers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
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.
