After Action Report
The Trail Blazers blew the doors off the Mavericks 128-96. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
