After Action Report
The Trail Blazers outlasted the Warriors 120-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. The Trail Blazers bent the defense out of shape from deep; shots just aren't falling for the Warriors lately. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
