After Action Report
The Spurs downed the Nuggets 116-104. Spurs torched the Nuggets on the offensive end. The Spurs played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Spurs' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Nuggets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Nuggets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
