After Action Report

In San Antonio, the Spurs snuck past the Bulls 108-105. The tempo dragged the Bulls 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 locker room is humming, and it showed. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
