After Action Report
The Trail Blazers demolished the 76ers 101-81. Ugly basketball, but the Trail Blazers did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Trail Blazers; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Trail Blazers. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
