After Action Report
The Spurs survived the Lakers 104-101. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Spurs answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. The Spurs rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
