San Antonio @ New Jersey

After that huge win against Boston I thought they'd be suseptible to dropping a very winnable game on the road, as the team has done in the past. The Spurs came out and played a good game today and consolidated their win against the Celtics.

Tim Duncan was pretty damn spectacular as per usual, but the real story was Matt Bonner's continuing domination from distance.
Roger Mason was also a pretty handy contributor in the win.

Also a special mention to Malik Hairston. Did anyone else see that awesome putback dunk? He did it right over Josh Boone. I love seeing physical play like that from the guard positions.

Great game. VC kept them in it, but after Bowen checked in he didn't do much else. Was excited to see more of Hairston...he took it to the rack almost everytime he got the ball, which was great. Bonner is killin' it right now.

I was worried about this game too. Classic trap game, especially since Devin Harris has had a lot of success against Tony.

Hairston's putback was sweet. I'm glad Pop is getting him some minutes.

I was impressed with how Duncan was hitting the most ridiculous shots over Brook Lopez with ease. I thought Lopez did a good job staying with Duncan, not biting on fakes etc., but Duncan was still finding ways to score.
