After Action Report
The Trail Blazers handled the Kings 110-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. The Trail Blazers steamroller is in full effect right now; Trail Blazers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
