After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers buried the Nets 137-116. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Trail Blazers; the Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
