After Action Report
In Dallas, the Trail Blazers took care of the Mavericks 105-88. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell; Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
