After Action Report
In a track meet, the Trail Blazers outlasted the Hawks 125-116. Trail Blazers' offense had its way with the Hawks. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Trail Blazers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
