After Action Report
In a track meet, the Trail Blazers outlasted the Nuggets 129-119. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell; Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
