After Action Report

The Spurs handled the Celtics 119-105. The Spurs got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Spurs answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

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.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
