After Action Report
The Spurs blew the doors off the Nuggets 118-96. Spurs' offense had its way with the Nuggets. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Spurs. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
