After Action Report
The Cavaliers snuck past the Celtics 99-94. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Cavaliers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Cavaliers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Celtics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
