After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers handled the Bulls 100-86. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. Trail Blazers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; the Bulls bent the defense out of shape from deep. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
