After Action Report
In Portland, the Celtics survived the Trail Blazers 106-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Trail Blazers are in a full-on tailspin; the Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Trail Blazers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
