After Action Report
The Spurs snuck past the Hornets 121-119. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. The Spurs steamroller is in full effect right now; Spurs' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
