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 become the Best team in NBA History

The San Antonio Spurs have done it quietly, like they do all things Spurs, but have achieved NBA greatness.  With the recent struggles of the Los Angeles Lakers, the Spurs have become the team with the highest winning percentage.  With a percentage of .610, the Spurs have won two out of every three games over the last 15 years.

The Spurs hope to add to that percentage when they face the Sacramento Kings tomorrow night, their first game back from their mostly unsuccessful Rodeo Road Trip.  Plenty of great seats and affordable tickets still remain so be sure to get yours today and help cheer on your Defending NBA Champions!

 

 

Spurs end Rodeo Road Trip on a High Note

The 2015 Rodeo Road Trip will be one to remember and hopefully a record that will stand for a long time, that is, the most losses on said Rodeo Road Trip.  For the Spurs, the trip is usually a bonding period where the team gels into playoff form.  This season, however, the Spurs went sub .500 for the first time with a 4-5 record.  The bright spot?  The last two games were won by a combined 37 points.

“We played well in some games and lost, and played well the last two nights and won,” Head Coach Gregg Popovich said after the Suns victory. “We’re starting to get in a better rhythm I think.”

For Tim Duncan, it’s all about confidence. For him as well as his team.

“We need to be confident, individually and as a team. It’s been shot for a while,” Duncan said before departing Phoenix. “We’re going to start building it back and winning some games. That’s the only way it’s going to come.”

The (re)building begins this Wednesday, March 4th as they begin a six game home stand beginning with the Sacramento Kings, whom the Spurs beat last Friday night in Sacramento 107-96.  A game which Kings Coach George Karl think they should have won.

“I just think the effort, the energy and the intensity we had was first class,” Karl said Fridays game. “But the basketball IQ in the fourth quarter? I am not saying it was bad, but it sure wasn’t good.”
