After Action Report
The Spurs squeaked past the Nuggets 94-93. The Spurs won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Spurs played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. Survive-and-advance type win.
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 · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
