After Action Report
The Spurs ran roughshod over the Wizards 117-97. The better team simply showed up tonight. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Spurs per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
