After Action Report
In a track meet, the Spurs blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 126-98. The breakneck pace played right into Spurs' hands. The Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Trail Blazers are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- 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.
