The Portland Trail Blazers traveled to Chase Center on Friday to take on the Golden State Warriors. Entering the game above .500, the Blazers looked to make an impression against the team with the best record in the NBA. However, as has been the case for years, Portland fell short in the Bay Area.
Things got off to a fast offensive start, with both teams making more than 50% of their shots from the field in the first 6 minutes. However, things slowed for Golden State as soon as Curry was subbed off the floor in head coach Steve Kerr’s new staggered rotation.
