After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers snuck past the Mavericks 106-105. Trail Blazers torched the Mavericks on the offensive end. The Trail Blazers came in with something to prove after a loss; Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
