After Action Report
In a track meet, the Trail Blazers snuck past the Cavaliers 109-104. Trail Blazers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell; Trail Blazers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
