After Action Report
In Seattle, the Trail Blazers survived the SuperSonics 125-121 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Trail Blazers.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · 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.
- Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
