After Action Report
The Spurs held off the Bulls 99-91. Spurs' starting five clicked while the Bulls looked disjointed. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Spurs played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.

- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
