The Spurs survived the Clippers 118-115. Spurs torched the Clippers on the offensive end. The Clippers looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Clippers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Spurs per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
