After Action Report
The Trail Blazers outlasted the Celtics 120-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Trail Blazers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
