After Action Report

The Spurs demolished the Warriors 133-105. Lineup balance gave the Spurs a clear synergy edge. Second-chance points piled up for the Spurs; the Spurs steamroller is in full effect right now. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Spurs · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
