After Action Report
In San Antonio, the Spurs handled the Timberwolves 109-92. Spurs' offense had its way with the Timberwolves. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Spurs; Spurs' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Timberwolves looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Spurs per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
