So excluding the last month of the regular season, that's 5 wins by a combined 90 points for the Spurs as a rested team following a double-digit loss. That's an average of exactly 18 points per game. And here they are tonight, the Spurs playing again as a rested team off a double-digit loss, and they don't have to win by 18. Three will be enough.
Ah! the number 3 ..
This is a good point. The Spurs don't need to give the Heat a payback blow-out game ..just win by three or with a three..
25 years ago about 1 of every 18 field-goal attempts in the league was a 3-pointer. Now a 3-pointers represented almost 1 of every 4 shots taken.
I heard some announcer say the other day ...think it was Jeff Van Gundy.-.It seems like 3 pointers go in better when you are at home-
If this holds true in game 3-- the Spurs at home shooting and making the 3 should cover by 3...
