After Action Report
In Portland, the Trail Blazers survived the Spurs 110-109. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Spurs' defenders refused to give up clean looks.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
