After Action Report

The Spurs outlasted the Suns 119-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Spurs lately; Spurs' old heads steadied the ship in the swings.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Suns · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Spurs · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
