After Action Report
The Warriors took care of the Trail Blazers 117-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Warriors cashed in. Warriors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
