Their field goal percentage stood at an impressive 53 percent, and they dominated inside the paint with 64 points. Despite turning over the ball 20 times, they managed to maintain control of the game with a higher assist-to-turnover ratio than their opponents.


In contrast, during their away game against the Bucks, Cleveland struggled slightly but still managed to put up 98 points. Their three-point shooting was particularly noteworthy at approximately 43 percent success rate from beyond the arc. However, defensive challenges were apparent as they allowed 113 points against them.

Looking back further at another home performance versus Minnesota Timberwolves shows that while they lost by five points with a final score of 124-129, their resilience was on display as they fought back from behind throughout much of the game.


The Cavaliers' ability to score both inside and outside has been consistent across these games; however defensively there's room for improvement especially when it comes down to limiting opponents' scoring runs.


As we look ahead towards facing Miami Heat at home where Cleveland has shown strength and tenacity this season – fans can expect another high-scoring affair from both sides with particular attention on how well Cavs can defend against Heat’s offensive threats.
