After Action Report

The Spurs edged the Trail Blazers 116-110. Every possession went the Spurs way. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Spurs played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Spurs per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Spurs · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
