After Action Report

The Spurs outlasted the Kings 112-93. Every possession went the Spurs way. The Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Spurs pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
