After Action Report

The Spurs survived the 76ers 107-106 in overtime. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Spurs sent shots into the fifth row all night; 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. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it
