After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Trail Blazers snuck past the Hawks 109-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; the Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
