With both teams fielding players that most casual fans (or maybe most fans, period) haven’t heard of before this season, the Blazers rode the energy of their young up-and-comers to build and hold an enormous lead, walking away with their biggest win of the year 122-92.
The name of this game was energy, and the Blazers had a lot of it. Watching players whose careers are just beginning play like their lives depend on it definitely hits different, and while Memphis kept pace in the first half, the third and fourth quarters got out of hand, and quick.
