Highlights
Unwelcome guests, the San Antonio Spurs defied the young
King and may soon take home another crown of their own.
Bruce Bowen, the defensive stopper, emerged as an unlikely
offensive star as the Spurs moved within one win of their
fourth championship in nine years with a 75-72 win over the
Cavaliers on Tuesday night to take a commanding 3-0 lead
in the series.
Bowen, who had just nine points in the first two games,
scored 13 on the night.
The
Spurs can wrap up their third title in five years with
a win in Game 4 on Thursday night. |

It may have
been one of the lowest scoring games in Finals history, but
the Spurs weren't too upset about it. Brent Barry told reporters
after the game, "We weren't happy with the way we played,
but we're happy with the win." Other players joked about
the "ugly" game, but reminded the forgetful media
that a win is, in fact, a win. And the Spurs are one "W" away
from ending the series, and their season. |
