Spurs roll Bulls on National television

The San Antonio Spurs have not been great on national television this season, but yesterday, against a game Chicago Bulls club, glimpses of the Championship squad of a year ago surfaced, Tony Parker had his best game of the season and Tim Duncan didn’t score a bucket in a 105-116  home victory.

“Tony is playing at a high level again, that makes a big difference for them,” Chicago center Pau Gasol said. “It’s tough to beat them that way.”

Parker, who has been battling back from injury the past few weeks, looked stellar in his performance Sunday.

“He’s been in that mode for the last two or three games and feeling pretty confident about his health,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. “He was very explosive today and played a decent number of minutes, too. I think he’s where we would like him to be.”

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!
