After Action Report

The Kings snuck past the Spurs 109-106. Every possession went the Kings way. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Kings played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Kings per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
