After Action Report

In Portland, the Trail Blazers outlasted the Hawks 108-101. The breakneck pace played right into Trail Blazers' hands. The Trail Blazers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Trail Blazers steamroller is in full effect right now. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
