After Action Report
The Trail Blazers ran roughshod over the Jazz 113-90. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Trail Blazers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Jazz rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Jazz · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
