After Action Report
The Trail Blazers handled the Celtics 127-114. The breakneck pace played right into Trail Blazers' hands. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Trail Blazers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Early returns: the Trail Blazers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
