After Action Report
The Kings survived the Trail Blazers 102-97. The better team simply showed up tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Kings stayed locked in; Kings' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Kings · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
