After Action Report
The Bucks rolled past the Trail Blazers 117-72. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Bucks lately; Bucks' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Trail Blazers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Bucks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Bucks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
