After Action Report
In Milwaukee, the Spurs survived the Bucks 122-118. The tempo dragged the Bucks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. The Spurs rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
