After Action Report

In a track meet, the Warriors demolished the Trail Blazers 132-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Warriors cashed in. The Warriors carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Warriors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Trail Blazers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 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 · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
