After Action Report
The Bucks demolished the Cavaliers 106-85. The Cavaliers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Bucks' outside barrage was a constant threat; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
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 · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
