After Action Report
The Trail Blazers handled the Suns 111-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Trail Blazers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Early returns: the Trail Blazers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
