I'd be curious about the statistical anomaly, too.
But I have to say, more than anything, I'm thrilled with the 74 ppg average over that span.
Weird. Wonder the last time an NBA team held its opponents to the same score three straight games....

Spurs are kicking ass lately... They didn't even need a long 3.
I guess you just shoot to score at least 75 these days, huh?
I agree with you on that as well. But still, where the is ESPN's stat department when you need it?
we r the
7+4= 11 1+1= 2
7-4= 3
put em together,omg the number 23!
The last three games, they've held the opponent to < 20 pts in 3 of the 4 quarters.
When is the last time the Spurs held three straight opponents to under 75 points?
The Clippers had to hurry to score 25 points in the 4th quarter so that they could reach 74, too.
(49 points after 3 quarters)
The 2003-04 season. They had a five game stretch where they allowed 67, 73, 67, 70 and 73. They also had another stretch that extended into the playoffs of 66, 67, 74 and 70.
That '03-04 team has been forgotten because of .4, but according to Hollinger stats, it was the best regular season defensive team in NBA history. Personally, I don't think it was as good as the '99 team, but it was pretty darn good.
You have to be the Spurstalk king of the self-quote.
It was the best post-hand-check-era defense perhaps.
Didn't the Pistons have a better defensive run that same year?
It showed what could happen with a decent Long Three in the system.
He quotes himself at home too.You have to be the Spurstalk king of the self-quote.
Just kidding.
The Pistons had a run where they allowed 68, 66, 65, 65, 69, 71, 75 and 76. That's pretty good.
Hey, I kind of like this quoting thing.
Oh, man. I won't touch that.
Does he call himself timvp, too?
If Hedo had a heart the Spurs would be working on five straight.
shame the spurs didnt bring Hedo back.
Eh, Hedo looks horrible this year. He's out of shape and plays like he doesn't GAF. Last year he looked good, but this year he's as uninspired as I've ever seen him.
Overall, I don't really think that winning is that high on Hedo's priority list.
Not giving an F and scoring 25 like he did tonight, is impressive.
Yeah the Pistons set come kind of record for holding opponents under 70 points per game.
The Spurs and Pistons both set the record for fewest points allowed that year...and PPG allowed too, I think.
The diffeence is that the Spurs were fairly consistent on D all year long that season, while the Pistons lowered their numbers to match the Spurs, in the second half of the season with a phenomenal defensive run after they got Sheed.
Not really.
touche, point taken
