After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers survived the Bulls 97-96. The Bulls couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Cavaliers. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
