Cleveland was outpaced by a noticeable margin by the Knicks, to say the least. The outcomes weren’t close. The Cavaliers were defeated by double-digits in all games of the series with their median margin of defeat being 14.5 points (which is more forgiving than their average margin of 19 points, but also, a 37-point deficit in Game 4 does a lot to skew that average).
