After watching the game, I wouldn't say they had a bad shooting night. Spurs defense is usually a notch above everyone else's. For the longest time, Brand & Cassell couldn't say the word "miss".

Everybody with sense knows playing @ SA is the hardest place to win on the road.

I only saw the second half, but the Spurs defense was much improved from where it has been most of this year. Still not Finals-ready, though.

Since you asked . . . .

After the Clippers game, the Spurs are 114-20 in SBC Center (.851) in regular season games.

02-03: 33-8
03-04: 33-8
04-05: 38-3
05-06: 10-1

They're also 21-8 (.724) in playoff games:

02-03: 8-4
03-04: 4-1
04-05: 9-3

In all home games, therefore, the Spurs are 135-28 (.828) at SBC Center.

Spurs are getting the defense back together as new guys learn the system. We are moving up in the stats on team defense.

Not only couldn't the Clips muster 90 on the Spurs, they couldn't get there with the additional overtime. In fact, they were simply shut down in overtime, getting only 3 points.
