After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers demolished the 76ers 142-120. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke; 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
