After Action Report

The Spurs ran roughshod over the Hornets 124-92. The Spurs got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Spurs per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
