After Action Report

The Trail Blazers demolished the Pacers 138-106. The breakneck pace played right into Trail Blazers' hands. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Trail Blazers. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
