The final score was 89-128, but their performance was much worse than any scoreboard could tell. San Antonio couldn’t stop Minnesota’s three-point barrage and the Spurs starters couldn’t take the lid off of the basket.
You could tell it was going to be a long 48 minutes from the first whistle. The San Antonio Spurs got down big early and never really came close again.
Patty Mills led a charge to draw the Spurs within three points at the end of the first quarter but quickly fell silent as the game progressed.
