Regular Season Round 67: San Antonio S. - Oklah.City T. 101-74
Date: January 1, 2011
San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich recently emphasized to his players just how unacceptably average they were defensively. Maybe the NBA-leading Spurs got the message. The Spurs held Kevin Durant and Oklahoma City to its worst-shooting game this season, while Tim Duncan scored 21 points as San Antonio won its fourth in a row, 101-74 over the listless Thunder on Saturday night. It was the best defensive effort yet for the Spurs, who allowed their fewest points in a game this season while improving to 29-4 - one of the 10 best starts in NBA history. "I hope it's an indication that we're getting better at (defense), because it was impressive tonight," Popovich said. Durant, the NBA's leading scorer, matched to a season low with 16 points. The Thunder began the game 4 for 24, were already trailing by double-digits barely midway through the first quarter and absorbed their most lopsided loss this season. Oklahoma City set a season-low for points, field goal percentage (32.9 percent) and committed 19 turnovers. Playing after a New Year's Eve victory over Atlanta, the Thunder sat their starters for the entire fourth with the game far our of reach. "It was just one of those games that was sloppy," Durant said. "Everything we did - fumbling passes and not finishing layups; missing opportunities on the defensive end to help the team in transition to get easy baskets." Tony Parker had 14 points and 10 assists and George Hill had 16 points for the Spurs. Duncan added nine rebounds and turned in another strong performance after scoring just two points and going 1 for 7 in a victory over the Lakers earlier this week. *Courtesy of www.ktvn.com
