After Action Report
The Cavaliers blew the doors off the Pistons 115-95. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Cavaliers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. Cavaliers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
