Warriors-Spurs Preview

The 1996-97 season resulted in the San Antonio Spurs getting the top pick in the draft, which they used on Tim Duncan before going on to win their first four NBA championships.

That season also started a lengthy streak of futility for the Golden State Warriors in the Alamo City.

The Spurs look to extend their home win streak over the Warriors to 24 as they try for a sixth straight victory at the AT&T Center on Friday night.

San Antonio (40-26) has not lost at home to Golden State (19-48) since Feb. 14, 1997, a season in which the Spurs finished 20-62.

Duncan had 19 points and 10 rebounds in his first career home game against the Warriors on Nov. 19, 1997, and has played in 22 games during the streak. He has 17 double-doubles in that span.

Duncan, though, endured one of the worst nights of his career in a 110-84 loss at Orlando on Wednesday. He went 1 of 10 from the field for his worst-ever shooting effort, finishing with five points and six boards as the Spurs' four-game win streak was snapped.

"Just a bad night," Duncan said. "Mainly myself. It kind of starts with me."

Duncan was limited to one basket for only the third time in his career. The superstar is enduring a rough stretch, averaging 12.5 points and 40.6 percent shooting in his last eight games.

"It's hard to play with Tim having an off night," guard Manu Ginobili said. "I totally, blindly trust him. Just one of those games."

San Antonio is in seventh place in the Western Conference. This uneven season could mark the end of the Spurs' streak of 10 straight with at least 50 wins.

The Spurs have won seven in a row against the Warriors, taking both meetings this season despite Golden State's Monta Ellis averaging 38.5 points in those games.

Ellis has averaged 22.3 points in four games since missing six with a strained lower back. He scored 28 in a 131-121 win over New Orleans on Wednesday.

The story of the game, though, was the contributions of unheralded players Anthony Tolliver and Reggie Williams. Both had career highs with Tolliver scoring 30 and Williams 22.

Tolliver and Williams were called up from the NBA Development League and helped Golden State overcome a 21-point deficit.

"Just relentless," Tolliver said. "When we're down and out, it seems like sometimes we play our best basketball. Sometimes that's what it takes to wake us up."

Another former D-League player, rookie Chris Hunter, added 17 points. He scored a season-high 22 in a 124-121 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers two nights earlier.

The Warriors have lost 11 in a row on the road since a 108-101 victory at Minnesota on Jan. 6.

Spurs dig in against Warriors in high-scoring rout

SAN ANTONIO (NBA.com exclusive) -- Besides a day to rest, there was one other factor that helped Tim Duncan bounce back from his career-worst shooting performance: the Golden State Warriors came to town.

Facing the NBA's statistical bottom-of-the-barrel defense, Duncan -- and the rest of the Spurs -- greatly benefited just two nights removed from their worst loss of the season in Orlando. Duncan didn't miss any of his eight shots, San Antonio shot a season-best 64 percent and the Spurs defeated the Warriors at home for the 24th-straight time in a 147-116 runaway at AT&T Center.

"They probably shot over 80 percent," Warriors forward Corey Maggette said before looking at a final stat sheet that showed San Antonio had hit 62-of-96 from the floor.

It only seemed like the Spurs (41-26) were that hot because they were clipping along at more than 70 percent through three quarters. It was the most points the Spurs have scored in 19 seasons.

"Everybody got to play and got to score, and that's always a good thing," Gregg Popovich said, noting that each of the Spurs' 12 players made a basket.

After Duncan struggled through the 26-point loss Wednesday at Orlando -- he scored five points on a career-worst 1-for-10 shooting in 24 minutes -- he quickly righted his game against Golden State (19-49). Duncan was 8-for-8 for 17 points in 14 minutes.

It looked like the Spurs wanted to get their big man's game in shape before heading off for back-to-back games against Atlanta and Oklahoma City starting Sunday.

"Not only because of that, but because we had to punish Golden State with him," said Manu Ginobili, who scored 23 points on 10-for-15 shooting plus a season-high 11 assists. "They didn't have big men, and Tim was a big advantage in that regard. The minutes we had him in there we had to get him the ball."

When Duncan took a pair of shots from about 12 feet, he likely didn't have to make it that hard on himself. The Spurs scored 14 of their opening 17 points in the paint. They had 26 in the paint after the first quarter (the Warriors had 28 points of any kind at that point).

Not only did the injury-plagued Warriors dress only eight players -- including three who recently had been playing in the D-League -- they had one fewer coach on the bench when Don Nelson was ejected less than 10 minutes into the game. Almost from the opening buzzer, Nelson was a frequent conversationalist with referee Ron Garretson, who gave Nelson the thumb.

Nelson was lucky not having to endure this one. And though players like Maggette (10-for-14 for 30 points in 30 minutes) and Monta Ellis (15-for-28 for 39 points in 38 minutes) showed flair, it wasn't much fun losing the team's 12th straight on the road.

"I'm glad it's just over with," Ellis said.

It was almost over when it started. San Antonio scored a season-high 41 points in the first quarter after an odd shooting line: the Spurs went 18-for-24 from the floor while missing all three of their 3-pointers and clanking in 5-for-12 at the free-throw line.

The Warriors trailed by 13 despite shooting 50 percent.

"You need to have a very high competitive level from the very first quarter to have a chance to make them have to play with Duncan on the floor a little bit more," said Warriors assistant Keith Smart, who stepped in after Nelson's early dismissal. "That wasn't the case early on, and then we had to play catchup. It just snowballed from there."

The Warriors rallied from a 21-point deficit late in the third quarter to defeat New Orleans at home on Wednesday. They hit a franchise-record 11 3-pointers in the second half and outscored the Hornets 65-34 over the final 17 ½ minutes.

But facing the Spurs they trailed by as many as 40 points after halftime.

This will be about as easy as it gets for the Spurs. Here's their next five games: at Atlanta, at Oklahoma City, home against the Lakers and Cavaliers and back out on the road against the Celtics.

"We basically have a rough 15 games left," Ginobili said. "So it was good to get a good win and rest a little bit."

Duncan could be the biggest beneficiary of the rest, and his shooting night against Golden State would work wonders for the confidence of the normal player.

"He doesn't need to do something amazing to get his confidence back," Popovich said. "He knows who he is."

For now, the Spurs can look at a memorable night. The last time San Antonio scored this many was the second game of the 1990-91 season when the franchise's current brain trust was in its infancy. Popovich and R.C. Buford, now the Spurs' general manager, were assistants to Larry Brown when San Antonio defeated Denver 161-153 on Nov. 7, 1990.
