After Action Report
The Trail Blazers upended the 76ers 113-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. The Trail Blazers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; second-chance points piled up for the 76ers. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- 76ers · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
