San Antonio Spurs 75, Cleveland Cavaliers 72
The Spurs turned on the defense last night as they held the Cavs to 36.7% shooting from the floor. The Cavs held the Big Three on the Spurs to 34 points, but a couple of unlikely heroes stepped up to put the Spurs on the brink of their 4th NBA Title in 9 years. Bruce Bowen and Brent Barry hurt the Cavaliers badly. Bruce Bowen scored 13 points and grabbed 9 rebounds as he hit all 4 of the three-point shots that he attempted. Brent Barry only played 17 minutes last night but he hit 3 of 4 shots from three-point range and he finished up with 9 points and 2 rebounds. Tony Parker led the way for the Spurs with 17 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists. Tim Duncan was busy with 14 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocked shots. Manu Ginobili had an awful night as he was 0 for 7 from the floor. He finished up with 3 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists. The Spurs are now up 3 games to none on the Cavaliers and they will look to close out the series Thursday Night in Cleveland.
