After Action Report
The Cavaliers blew the doors off the Bulls 125-102. Cavaliers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Cavaliers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
