According to NBC, "Virginia, on the other hand, is specifically designed to avoid playing in transition as much as possible. They’ll typically fade the offensive glass, sending three players back and ensuring that the game will be played at their pace. In total, 88.9 percent of Virginia’s defensive possessions have been played in the half court, which is the fourth-highest total of 353 Division I basketball teams."
Half-court is the Cavs forte, so they will give up offensive rebounds in order to make sure you do not get out on the fast break. They make you play "on their court" even when they are on your court.
