After Action Report

The Kings took care of the Trail Blazers 108-97. Kings' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. The Kings couldn't shake the cold spell; the Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
