After Action Report
The Mavericks survived the Trail Blazers 125-120. The Mavericks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Trail Blazers.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Trail Blazers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
