After Action Report
The Trail Blazers squeaked past the Hawks 101-98. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
