After Action Report

In San Antonio, the Spurs rolled past the Celtics 142-99. The breakneck pace played right into Spurs' hands. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Spurs came in with something to prove after a loss. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Spurs · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
