After Action Report

The Trail Blazers rolled past the SuperSonics 129-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. The Trail Blazers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Trail Blazers came in with something to prove after a loss. The SuperSonics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
