After Action Report
The Trail Blazers outlasted the Spurs 127-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Spurs are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Spurs locker-room rift aren't helping. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
