After Action Report
In a track meet, the Warriors survived the Trail Blazers 118-116. The tempo dragged the Trail Blazers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Warriors carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Warriors pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Trail Blazers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
