After Action Report

The Trail Blazers outlasted the Cavaliers 111-105. Trail Blazers torched the Cavaliers on the offensive end. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Trail Blazers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
