After Action Report
The Trail Blazers snuck past the Hornets 115-113. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell; the Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Trail Blazers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
