After Action Report
The Trail Blazers survived the Raptors 135-131. The tempo dragged the Raptors into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
