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.
