After Action Report

The Kings downed the Trail Blazers 121-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Kings ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; second-chance points piled up for the Trail Blazers. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Trail Blazers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
