After Action Report
The Trail Blazers pulled away from the Heat 119-108. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Trail Blazers are in a full-on tailspin; Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Heat · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
