After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers survived the Jazz 113-109. Trail Blazers' offense had its way with the Jazz. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Trail Blazers looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
