After Action Report
The Trail Blazers ran roughshod over the Bobcats 120-85. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Trail Blazers; Trail Blazers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
