Spurs stun Thunder with late comeback 100-95.

Perhaps it isn’t good for the Spurs to get out to a big lead early. This team just seems to play with a lot more focus when they’re down, and when their great clutch performers are able to take over the game when it’s on the line. The Spurs looked lifeless and flat for much of the game falling down by 21 points in the third quarter, but late in the quarter, Manu Ginobili used indomitable competitiveness to energize his team to bring them back from the brink. They slowly cut into the Thunder lead, until with 4:28 left, the crafty Argentine somehow executed a perfect pass to a wide-open Patty Mills at the three point line while falling down.
