After Action Report
In a track meet, the Trail Blazers buried the Timberwolves 144-104. The breakneck pace played right into Trail Blazers' hands. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Trail Blazers steamroller is in full effect right now. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Timberwolves · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
