After Action Report
The Suns rolled past the Spurs 128-102. The Spurs had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; shots just aren't falling for the Suns lately. Tonight's Spurs utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
