After Action Report
In a track meet, the Suns stunned the Trail Blazers 151-118. The Suns got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Suns carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
