After Action Report
The Trail Blazers rolled past the Warriors 128-63. Trail Blazers' offense had its way with the Warriors. Second-chance points piled up for the Trail Blazers; Warriors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
