Portland dominated Brooklyn 134–99 on March 23 at the Moda Center, a 35-point blowout that fell well short of the 218.5 Vegas total. Trail Blazers forward T. Camara led all scorers with 35 points, while D. Avdija added 18 as Portland's offense hummed at 55 percent from the field and 18 three-pointers made. The home team's defensive rating of 91.0 suffocated Brooklyn, which shot just 41.3 percent and managed only 8 three-pointers despite 11 steals. Portland built separation early, outscoring the Nets 35–30 in the first quarter, then sealed the outcome with a 37-point fourth quarter that reflected complete control. T. Etienne (18 points) and Z. Williams (16) led Brooklyn's tepid offensive effort, hamstrung by 22 turnovers and a 91.0 offensive rating. Portland's 120.1 offensive rating and 28 assists underscored crisp ball movement against a Nets defense surrendering 8 blocks. This lopsided result signals Portland's depth and defensive intensity while exposing Brooklyn's ongoing offensive inconsistency.
