Spurs knock Bucks to .500

The defending NBA Champion San Antonio Spurs, winners of eight of their last 10 games picked up their second consecutive victory, disposing of the Milwaukee Bucks 95-101.  The Spurs now await the arrival of the Charlotte Hornets, who are coming off a victory over the hapless New York Knicks.

The Spurs, after losing to the Bulls playing “… embarrassing basketball,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. “I want my money back.”   The team  came into the game against the Lakers with an attitude that carried over to the Bucks.  Although the Bucks game had a bit of a learning curve to it.

“Actually, when they’re young and they’ve changed their team a bit, and their coach, it takes a little while to get used to it,” Duncan said. “We hadn’t seen them. It took a half to get used to what they were doing. And then when we did, we did a much better job; taking care of the ball, moving the ball and luckily we made some shots.”

The Spurs will have a couple of days before the Hornets game this Wednesday.   Plenty of great seats and affordable tickets are still available so be sure to get yours now and help support your defending NBA Champion Spurs!

Spurs set NBA Finals Records after dismantling the Heat

San Antonio outscores Miami by 70 in the Finals

The San Antonio Spurs Dynasty is a fact of life in the NBA and the rest of the league may as well get used to it.  Not only did the Spurs disassemble the Heat in five games, they set a number of NBA records in doing it.

  • 70 points – Biggest point differential in NBA Finals History
  • Tim Duncan’s 158 Playoff Double doubles the best in NBA Playoff History
  • Duncan, Parker, Ginobili – The most successful trio in NBA history
  • 4 championship titles by Duncan, Parker, Ginobili matches Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Michael Cooper and Kurt Rambis’ four in the 1980s
  • At age 22, Kwahi Leonard is the youngest Finals MVP since Tim Duncan (who was also 22) won his in 1999

There are still other records to list but one thing that cannot be shown in the record books was the sense of team on this squad.  They played as one unit and avenged their game seven loss in the 2013 NBA Finals to this same Heat team.
