The San Antonio Spurs vaulted themselves into history with a 112-107 road victory over the Western Conference number two seed Oklahoma City Thunder and earned the chance at a rematch with the defending NBA Champion Miami Heat who beat the Indiana Pacers in six games.

Odds makers currently have the Spurs slightly ahead to win the match up but what we do know is this:

  • Spurs Heat I went seven games
  • San Antonio is ranked 2nd in offense and 2nd in defense during the playoffs
  • Miami is ranked 1st in offense and 6th in defense

In Miami, LeBron James was watching the Spurs close out the Thunder and remarked on comments made by Spurs PF Tim Duncan after the game.

“We’re excited about it,” Duncan said in post game interviews. ” We’ve got four more to win. We’ll do it this time,” adding  “We’re happy it’s the Heat again. We’ve got that bad taste in our mouths still.”

Spurs take 3-2 Series lead

The San Antonio Spurs took another step in realizing their quest of getting back to the NBA Finals by thrashing the Oklahoma City Thunder 89-117.  The beating was thorough and precise and the Spurs played high level basketball against a very, very good basketball team.  It is exactly what you should get from a #1 seed taking on a #2 seed Western Conference finals.

“We absolutely believe we can (in OKC Game six). It’s a tough place to play, and they’re going to be fighting for their lives,” Forward Tim Duncan said after the game.  “But we feel we can play the right way. We take care of the ball. We do the things we’ve been talking about all series long, there’s no reason why we can’t win it.”

Game six is scheduled for Saturday at 7:30 p.m.  Great seats and cheap tickets are still available.  Get yours now!!
