After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers snuck past the Timberwolves 111-110. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Trail Blazers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Trail Blazers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Timberwolves rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
