After Action Report

In Portland, the Trail Blazers held off the SuperSonics 126-119. The tempo dragged the SuperSonics into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Trail Blazers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed.

  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
