After Action Report

In a track meet, the Spurs buried the Hawks 105-84. The tempo dragged the Hawks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Spurs' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
