After Action Report

In San Antonio, the Spurs pulled away from the Mavericks 122-112. Spurs' scorers couldn't be contained. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Spurs pushed the pace until the other side broke. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Mavericks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
