After Action Report

The Spurs fended off the Suns 108-102. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
