After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers outlasted the Nuggets 109-97. The Cavaliers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
