Was there ever any doubt what the Spurs had in mind for the Lakers in Game 3? Forget what they don't have and concentrate on the task at hand and move onto to the next series as the Spurs run over Staples Purple and Gold 120-89.

Led by Tim Duncan's 26 points and nine rebounds and Spurs Point God TP9's 20 points and seven helpers the Spurs were dominant all night long. With a 55-44 lead at the break they came right out and pout the game away in the 3rd frame with a 30-18 advantage and led after three 85-63. The Spurs shot an amazing 61% from the field and out rebounded the Lakers by +14. Spurs Role Player DeJuan Blair chipped in with 13 points and seven rebounds.

The Lakers were again shorthanded and with no NASHty or Meeks and the Real BLAKEshow it was tough sledding for the Lakers. "Dwight of Three Stripes" led the LAKEshow with 25 points and eleven boards. Starting Guard Tandem of Darius Morris (24 pts 6 assts) and Andrew Goudelock (20 pts) gave the Lakers what they had but it wasn't nearly enough. Too much firepower out for the Lakers had them doomed before the jump.

Now the Spurs will go for the sweep on Sunday as they intend to use the down time between series to get rest. Lakers disappointing season is coming to an end and a whole bunch of questions are coming for the 2013-14 season.
