After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers ran roughshod over the Rockets 137-94. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
