After Action Report
The Trail Blazers ran roughshod over the Suns 109-88. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
