After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers survived the Mavericks 100-99. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Mavericks. Early returns: the Trail Blazers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
