After Action Report
In a track meet, the Trail Blazers survived the Spurs 107-102. Trail Blazers torched the Spurs on the offensive end. The Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
