The San Antonio Spurs continued their home dominance when they beat the Denver Nuggets 108-103 this past Wednesday. Denver was able to cut into the lead with a late run, but it wasn't enough to stop the Spurs from winning their 15th game in a row.
The game started off with both offenses playing very well, scoring a combined 62 points. San Antonio took a healthy lead into the half, though, after outscoring the Nuggets 29-15 in the second quarter. A great comeback by the Nuggets made it a close game in the fourth, but the Spurs then relied on ageless star Tim Duncan to seal the win by scoring six of his team's last seven points.
Duncan had yet another fine performance for the Spurs, grabbing 13 rebounds and getting five assists to go along with his 29 points. Danny Green played in just 17 minutes for the game, but he was able to making five of his nine three-point attempts to score 16 points. Green left the game early on in the second half due to a foot injury.
Aaron Brooks was the Nuggets' best player on the night, scoring 25 points and dishing out eight assists. Kenneth Faried added 24 points and 10 rebounds in the loss and was a huge reason for the comeback for the Nuggets in the fourth quarter. He scored 15 points in the final period, but Duncan and the Spurs answered late in the quarter to secure the win.
