After Action Report
The Cavaliers pulled away from the SuperSonics 107-91. Every possession went the Cavaliers way. The Cavaliers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Cavaliers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. SuperSonics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
