After Action Report
The Spurs shocked the Kings 105-101. Every possession went the Spurs way. Second-chance points piled up for the Spurs; the Spurs played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Tonight's Kings utilization choices clashed with the team identity. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
