Just a day after being clean-and-jerked off their own floor by the Detroit Pistons, the Cleveland Cavaliers returned to flex some muscle against a road weary Orlando Magic squad. With a bit more Love, a lot more bench and some significant pressing on both ends of the floor, the Cavs raised the bar early in the paint then went deep with their reps to finish off the Magic.
The starting unit was bolstered by the return of Kevin Love from rest management (16 points and 14 rebounds), and benefitted from strong nights by Collin Sexton, Cedi Osman and Larry Nance, Jr.
