After Action Report
The Bucks upended the Trail Blazers 107-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bucks cashed in. The Bucks couldn't shake the cold spell; Bucks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Bucks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Bucks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 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.
- Trail Blazers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
