In Sacramento, the Spurs ran roughshod over the Kings 120-76. Spurs' offense had its way with the Kings. The Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
