After Action Report
The Spurs snuck past the Trail Blazers 114-111. Spurs controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Spurs couldn't shake the cold spell; the Trail Blazers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Spurs · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
