After Action Report
In San Antonio, the Kings demolished the Spurs 125-91. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Kings cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Kings; second-chance points piled up for the Spurs. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
