After Action Report
In New York, the Trail Blazers survived the Knicks 104-103. The better team simply showed up tonight. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Trail Blazers bent the defense out of shape from deep.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
