After Action Report

In a track meet, the Raptors demolished the Cavaliers 147-107. The Raptors got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Raptors; the Raptors pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
