After Action Report
The Spurs ran roughshod over the Trail Blazers 132-87. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Spurs came in with something to prove after a loss; Spurs' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping. Trail Blazers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Spurs · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
