After Action Report
The Hornets took care of the Cavaliers 103-87. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Hornets pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Cavaliers are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- 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.
