In Cleveland, the Cavaliers edged the Wizards 103-96. The better team simply showed up tonight. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Cavaliers.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- 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.
