After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers downed the Clippers 87-75. The Cavaliers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Cavaliers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Clippers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. 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.
