After Action Report
The Spurs handled the Trail Blazers 111-100. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Spurs' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. The Trail Blazers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
