Back-up point guard George Hill has been solid for the Spurs so far this season. He has played in 28 games (4 starts) for the Spurs this year and he is averaging 24.4 minutes, 9.9 points, 2.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game. Hill is doing a great job backing up Tony Parker but he’s likely to be coming off of the bench until he’s elgible to become a free agent as Parker is only 27 years old and going strong. Still, the Spurs have great depth at point guard and not too many NBA teams can say that.

The Spurs shot 50.6% from the floor last night and they outrebounded the Knicks 42-32 which were the big reasons for the win. Tony Parker led the way for the Spurs last night with 23 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists. Manu Ginobili was solid off the bench last night for the Spurs with 17 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals. Tim Duncan pitched in with 13 points, 7 rebounds and 1 assist last night. The Spurs are now 17-11 on the year.

The Spurs shot 59.7% from the floor and they outrebounded the Bucks 42-30 which were big reasons for the easy win last night. Tim Duncan led the way for the Spurs last night with 26 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists. Tony Parker did a good job of running the offense with 16 points, 2 rebounds and 8 assists. Antonio McDyess pitched in with 14 points and 6 rebounds in only 18 minutes off the bench. The Spurs are now 16-11 on the year.

The Spurs shot 51.4% from the floor last night but it wasn’t good enough to help them beat the injury ravaged Blazers. Tim Duncan led the way for the Spurs last night with 24 points, 11 rebounds and 3 assists. Richard Jefferson pitched in with 18 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist. Tony Parker also had a decent game with 16 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists last night for the Spurs. The Spurs are now 15-11 on the year.

Tim Duncan is showing no signs of slowing down for the Spurs as he is still one of the best big men in the NBA. Duncan has played in 23 games (all starts) for the Spurs this season and he is averaging 31.8 minutes, 19.7 points, 10.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 2.1 blocked shots per game. The Spurs will always be a threat to win the NBA Title as long as Tim Duncan is healthy and that appears to be the case this season.

Something just doesn’t seem right with Manu Ginobili so far this season for the Spurs. He has played in 20 games (1 start) and he is averaging 24.1 minutes, 13.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.2 steals per game. His shot selection has been poor as he is only hitting 38.8% from the floor but somehow he is still hitting 41.7% from three point range which doesn’t make a lot of sense. The Spurs need Ginobili to get back into a groove as the Western Conference is tougher this season.

The Spurs will be without F/C Matt Bonner for the next four weeks due to a broken bone in his right hand. Bonner has played in 24 games (5 starts) for the Spurs this season and he is averaging 20.1 minutes, 8.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game. His main asset is his long range shooting as he has made 45.1% of his three point shots forcing opposing teams to send a big guy away from the basket to defend him opening up Tim Duncan around the basket.

The San Antonio Spurs (15-10) got an all-around team effort in their win over the Los Angeles Clippers (12-15) last night.  They shot 51% from the field and went 5-10 behind the arc, leading to 7 different players in double-figures.  The Spurs got 41 points from their bench and held the Clippers to 44% shooting.  They kept them under 20 points in both the first and third quarter, helping them build a comfortable lead going into the 4th quarter.  Tony Parker went 7-11 for 19 points, 3 assists, and 2 rebounds while Tim Duncan took it easy, playing only 24 minutes for a solid 13 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists.  A nice win for the Spurs last night.

The Spurs outscored the Pacers 30-16 in the 4th quarter to win this game last night after sleepwalking for the first three quarters. Tim Duncan led the way for the Spurs last night with 19 points, 16 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocked shots. Tony Parker pitched in with 15 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists. Keith Bogans got a rare start last night and he responded with 14 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists in 25 minutes. The Spurs are now 14-10 on the year.

The San Antonio Spurs (13-10) dominated the glass, helping them get an easy win over the Golden State Warriors (7-18).  They outrebounded the Warriors 54-34 and shot 48% from the field.  They did have 20 turnovers though, which will usually lead to a loss when you turn the ball over that much.  Tim Duncan led the Spurs once again, dropping in 27 points, 15 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 blocks, and 1 steal.  They had four other players in double figures, including Richard Jefferson with 17 points.  On defense the Spurs obviously did a good job rebounding the ball, but they didn’t do a good enough job against the Warriors’ talented guard Monta Ellis.  Ellis had 35 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists.  They kept everyone else in check, and all in all, it was a solid road win for the Spurs.
