After Action Report
The Cavaliers blew the doors off the Heat 122-93. The breakneck pace played right into Cavaliers' hands. The Cavaliers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Cavaliers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. The Heat rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Cavaliers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
