After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers demolished the Nets 122-101. Trail Blazers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
