After Action Report
The Trail Blazers stunned the Knicks 99-98. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. Trail Blazers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Trail Blazers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Tonight's Knicks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. An upset for the books.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
