After Action Report
In a track meet, the Cavaliers survived the Hawks 120-118. The tempo dragged the Hawks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
