After Action Report
The Trail Blazers handled the SuperSonics 108-89. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Trail Blazers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Trail Blazers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
