After Action Report
The Spurs pulled away from the Trail Blazers 109-94. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Spurs' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. The Trail Blazers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
