San Antonio Spurs Headed Back To NBA Finals

The San Antonio Spurs beat the Oklahoma City Thunder on Saturday 112-107 in overtime to punch their ticked to their second consecutive NBA finals. This is the first time the Spurs have made it to the finals in back to back years. Rematch from 2013.

With under a minute to go in OT, Spurs Kawhi Leonard gets back on a Thunder fastbreak to block Russell Westbrook’s shot and seal the win for the Spurs.

After the block, Tim Duncan scored and with 19 seconds left, the Thunder never scored again.

 

 

 


Tim Duncan said that this year, there won’t be a Game 6 comeback for the Heat. That the Spurs have it.
With under a minute to go in OT, Kawhi Leonard gets back on a Thunder fastbreak and denies Russell Westbrook.

“It’s unbelievable to regain that focus after that devastating loss that we had last year,” San Antonio’s Tim Duncan said. “But we’re back here. We’re excited about it. We’ve got four more to win. We’ll do it this time.

“We’re happy it’s the Heat again. We’ve got that bad taste in our mouths still.”
