The Nets shut down the Spurs offence as San Antonio drop their third straight game.
San Antonio Spurs into perhaps their worst offensive performance of the season in a 101-85 victory Monday night. A night after their defence was absent in a loss to the Knicks, the Spurs went across town and couldn’t get their offence going. San Antonio was held to its lowest point total of the season, and the NBA’s leading 3-point shooting team was a season-worst 16.7 per cent behind the arc. San Antonio came in shooting a little better than 40 per cent behind the arc.
It was the start of an important week for the Nets, who host Washington on Wednesday and Charlotte on Friday before a road-heavy March that includes a seven-game trip that will have them away for more than two weeks. "I think it’s an advantage playing here," coach Kenny Atkinson said. "I think we have to make some money, especially knowing what comes after that." UP NEXT Spurs: Host Detroit on Wednesday. Nets: Host Washington on Wednesday.
