After Action Report

The Trail Blazers stunned the Wizards 112-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
