After Action Report
In Portland, the Kings blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 128-93. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Kings played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Kings · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
