After Action Report

The Spurs demolished the Trail Blazers 118-88. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Spurs' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; shots just aren't falling for the Trail Blazers lately. The Trail Blazers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Trail Blazers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
