Mutombo couldn't really get into the flow. We had a couple days off to get our legs under us. Atlanta played last night and that was good for us. Cleveland's defense took over down the stretch, helping the Cavaliers improve to 9-0 this season in games decided by eight points or less. When it gets down to make or break, we've been really resilient.
