After Action Report
The Trail Blazers upended the Clippers 122-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
- Clippers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
