After Action Report
The Trail Blazers handled the Spurs 90-71. The Trail Blazers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Fresh off a statement win, the Trail Blazers stayed locked in; Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
