The Cleveland Cavaliers dominated the Miami Heat in Game 4 of their first-round series, winning by a staggering 55 points to complete the sweep. This marks the most lopsided series in NBA playoff history, with Cleveland winning by a combined 122 points over the four games. The Cavaliers were led by Donovan Mitchell, De'Andre Hunter, Ty Jerome, Evan Mobley, and Jarrett Allen, who all contributed to the blowout victory. Miami was unable to keep up with Cleveland's relentless offense and suffocating defense, leading to their third sweep in a best-of-seven series in franchise history. Cleveland will now advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals, where they will face either the Indiana Pacers or the Milwaukee Bucks. This dominant performance solidifies the Cavaliers as a strong contender in the playoffs, showcasing their potential as they continue their journey towards an NBA championship.
