After Action Report
In a track meet, the Cavaliers knocked off the Celtics 123-120. The Cavaliers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Cavaliers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. An upset for the books.
