After Action Report
The Trail Blazers edged the Heat 142-134. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell; Trail Blazers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
