With the upstart Nuggets in town on Saturday night, the Spurs took control early in the first quarter through some hot three-point shooting and suffocating defense, and never looked back. Though the Nuggets briefly cut the lead down to six within the first two minutes of the third quarter, the Spurs kept hitting from deep, and were fueled by brilliant shooting from Davis Bertans [six 3s, 18 points], an impressive two-way stretch in the second quarter from Kawhi Leonard [19-8-4-4] and a sublime offensive performance from the bench [53], resulting in a 32-point shellacking.
San Antonio vs. Denver, Final Score: Spurs throttle Nuggets, 112-80
