After Action Report
The Trail Blazers rolled past the Spurs 126-104. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Shots just aren't falling for the Trail Blazers lately; second-chance points piled up for the Spurs. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
