After Action Report

In San Antonio, the Spurs took care of the Timberwolves 112-98. Spurs' offense had its way with the Timberwolves. The Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Spurs carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed.
