After Action Report
The Cavaliers outlasted the Celtics 110-104. Cavaliers' offense had its way with the Celtics. The Cavaliers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Celtics are in a full-on tailspin. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
