After Action Report
The Spurs squeaked past the Knicks 111-106. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
