After Action Report
In San Antonio, the Spurs survived the Lakers 107-106. Spurs' offense had its way with the Lakers. Spurs' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Lakers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
