The Cleveland Cavaliers gave the Miami Heat an elimination game beat-down on Miami's home court, 138-83, ending this first round Eastern Conference NBA Playoff series in a 4-0 sweep in favor of the Cavs.  

This shot chart – depicting made shots only – is what a 55 point victory looks like.  Cleveland made 15 more buckets including 12 more 3’s than Miami; and they also had an 11 shot advantage from the free throw line.  SMH.

It's also worth mentioning that the Cavs did it on both ends of the floor.  They had 11 more steals, 4 more blocks, and 8 fewer turnovers than the Heat.  SMH...
