After Action Report
The Spurs outlasted the Lakers 103-93. Spurs' offense had its way with the Lakers. The Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Spurs' outside barrage was a constant threat. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Lakers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
