After Action Report
The Spurs fended off the Nuggets 120-111. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Spurs. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. The Spurs rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
