After Action Report
The Kings squeaked past the Trail Blazers 129-127 in overtime. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
