After Action Report
The Cavaliers handled the Suns 104-92. Ugly basketball, but the Cavaliers did just enough. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Cavaliers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
