After Action Report
The Trail Blazers snuck past the Jazz 101-99. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Jazz played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Jazz · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
