After Action Report
The Trail Blazers snuck past the Bobcats 86-85. The Bobcats couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Trail Blazers. The Bobcats carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Bobcats' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
