After Action Report

The Spurs rolled past the Wizards 111-82. Every possession went the Spurs way. Fresh off a statement win, the Spurs stayed locked in; Spurs' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. The Wizards rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
