After Action Report

The Spurs downed the Timberwolves 103-87. The Timberwolves couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Spurs. The Spurs ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Spurs' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
