After Action Report
In San Antonio, the Spurs buried the Nuggets 124-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Spurs stayed locked in; Spurs' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
