After Action Report
The Trail Blazers buried the Mavericks 117-88. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Trail Blazers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; fresh off a statement win, the Trail Blazers stayed locked in. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Trail Blazers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
