After Action Report
In a track meet, the Suns survived the Trail Blazers 132-127 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Suns steamroller is in full effect right now. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed.
