After Action Report

The Spurs snuck past the Magic 98-97. Ugly basketball, but the Spurs did just enough. Spurs' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; second-chance points piled up for the Magic. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
