After Action Report

The Spurs survived the Trail Blazers 120-118. Spurs torched the Trail Blazers on the offensive end. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • 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.
  • Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
