The San Antonio Spurs in 2013-14 came in 26-1 when they in the rebounding numbers. Make that that 27-1 as they were +9 at 45-36 as the Spurs hit 5th Gear on the Autobahn and the Heat could never find overdrive.
Behind 23 points and almost a dozen Oranges (11) from Future NBA HOF Tim Duncan the Spurs run the Spurs right out of the Alamo City 111-87 answering every bell. Spurs were also +15 from the Arc and went to the line eight more time hitting seven more free throws. Boris Diaw turned back to his Phoenix Suns Hay Days had a big 16 points and eight boards. TP9 chipped in with 17 points as Back Up Spurs PG Patty Mills added 9 points and ten rebounds and four helpers.
The Heat got to within eight in the 3rd and 4th but could never get even with the Spurs. Chris Bosh led the Heat with 23 points and eleven rebounds. King James added 19 points, eight boards, and seven helpers. In a game with 37 turnovers (Heat 20) the Heat could ill afford to fall behind and that's exactly what they did. The Spurs simply played at the all important "Pace" and that did the Heat in coming out of the Motel.
Spurs move to 45-16 as the heat fall to 43-16...and we will see these two Teams again as the Spurs will be looking for some retribution!
