After Action Report
The Trail Blazers outlasted the Knicks 104-98. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks steamroller is in full effect right now. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
