After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers handled the Heat 135-116. Trail Blazers torched the Heat on the offensive end. The Trail Blazers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Trail Blazers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Heat looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
