After Action Report
In a track meet, the Trail Blazers held off the Jazz 105-97. The tempo dragged the Jazz into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Trail Blazers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
