After Action Report

The Trail Blazers blew the doors off the Bobcats 119-73. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. The Trail Blazers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Trail Blazers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. The Bobcats rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
