After Action Report

The Spurs buried the Nuggets 129-90. The Spurs got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Spurs' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Nuggets are in a full-on tailspin. The Nuggets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
