After Action Report

In Milwaukee, the Cavaliers outlasted the Bucks 108-98. Cavaliers' scorers couldn't be contained. The Cavaliers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Cavaliers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. Bucks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
