After Action Report
In a track meet, the Trail Blazers blew the doors off the Pistons 128-92. Trail Blazers' scorers couldn't be contained. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Trail Blazers stayed locked in. Early returns: the Trail Blazers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
