After Action Report
The Spurs shocked the Nuggets 114-102. Lineup balance gave the Spurs a clear synergy edge. The Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it

- Nuggets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
