After Action Report

In a track meet, the Spurs survived the Lakers 106-103. The tempo dragged the Lakers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Spurs. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.
