After Action Report

The Warriors ran roughshod over the Trail Blazers 129-104. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Warriors cashed in. Warriors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Warriors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Warriors bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Trail Blazers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
