The Trail Blazers outlasted the Spurs 109-101. Trail Blazers torched the Spurs on the offensive end. The Trail Blazers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
