After Action Report
The Spurs held off the Hornets 107-100. The Spurs won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. 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. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- 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.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
