After Action Report
The Spurs snuck past the Suns 97-92. The Suns couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Spurs. The Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep; Suns' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Suns locker-room rift aren't helping. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
