After Action Report
The Nets edged the Cavaliers 106-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Nets' outside barrage was a constant threat. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Balanced Five A starting five that covers every position with even talent finds a synergy edge.
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
