Spurs defeat Blazers in OT, 137-139.

Dame was anything but tame in this game tonight!

Brandon Ingram had his chance to end this battle in regulation, but his shot fell short and OverTime emerged on the horizon. The Blazers nearly stole it then, were it not for a tough 3PTer in transition by Avery Bradley and his making of subsequent free throws. All this was just enough as CJ McCollum missed at the buzzer, unable to redeem a tremendous showing by his comrade Damian Lillard. Portland's star scorer dropped 55 points on the Spurs in this game, with 7 rebounds and 9 assists on 22/39 (11-16 FT). Lillard was unable to connect from the perimeter, however, as the Blazers fall to 10-13 on the season.

For San Antonio, Ingram had 30 points (13/20, 3/6 3PT) with 4 steals and 2 blocks. Bradley scored 23 with 3 steals of his own, going 9/16 (2/5 3PT). Dejounte Murray notched 20 points with 6 assists, but went 8/21. Rudy Gay scored 18 points with 3 blocks. Patty Mills scored eleven, as Kyle O'Quinn had 9 points with 7 rebounds.

Jusuf Nurkic terrorized the Spurs with 22 points and 14 rebounds with 2 blocks, as Portland easily won the glass, being the better team shooting the ball. LaMarcus Aldridge scored 15 points with 8 assists, and McCollum had 13 points.
