After Action Report
The Nets edged the Trail Blazers 119-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Trail Blazers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
