After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers buried the Pistons 115-94. Cavaliers' offense had its way with the Pistons. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
