After Action Report
The Spurs snuck past the Nuggets 99-97. Ugly basketball, but the Spurs did just enough. Fresh off a statement win, the Spurs stayed locked in; Spurs' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Spurs per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
