After Action Report

The Trail Blazers downed the Warriors 108-89. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Trail Blazers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Trail Blazers steamroller is in full effect right now. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Warriors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.

  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
