After Action Report
The Bucks survived the Trail Blazers 120-118. The Bucks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Bucks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Bucks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bucks locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
