After Action Report

In San Antonio, the Spurs squeaked past the Bulls 114-109. The tempo dragged the Bulls into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Spurs played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Spurs' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Spurs rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bulls · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
