After Action Report
The Spurs shocked the Pistons 131-100. The Spurs got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Fresh off a statement win, the Spurs stayed locked in; Spurs' outside barrage was a constant threat. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
