After Action Report
The Spurs ran roughshod over the Hawks 120-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. The Spurs carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Spurs' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Spurs per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
