After Action Report
The Spurs rolled past the Celtics 121-96. The Spurs got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics couldn't shake the cold spell. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
