After Action Report
The Trail Blazers fended off the Kings 121-112. The Kings had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Trail Blazers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Trail Blazers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Trail Blazers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
