After Action Report
The Spurs pulled away from the Rockets 98-86. Ugly basketball, but the Spurs did just enough. Spurs' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Rockets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
