After Action Report
The Trail Blazers rolled past the Hornets 125-104. Trail Blazers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Hornets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
