After Action Report
The Trail Blazers survived the Heat 123-119. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Trail Blazers bent the defense out of shape from deep.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
