After Action Report
The Cavaliers handled the Pistons 109-92. Every possession went the Cavaliers way. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Cavaliers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
