After Action Report

The Trail Blazers handled the Mavericks 111-94. Trail Blazers torched the Mavericks on the offensive end. The Trail Blazers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
