After Action Report
The Nets handled the Cavaliers 103-88. The better team simply showed up tonight. Nets' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Cavaliers are in a full-on tailspin. The Cavaliers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
