Facing elimination for the first time this postseason, the San Antonio Spurs come into this pivotal Game 6 with their backs against the wall. With 10 games already played between them and the Thunder this season and Game 6 looming, both of these teams are way passed the point of being surprised at what the other is trying to do. They’re both also worn down and beaten up, which means still finding a way to lock in and do the little things that are needed to come away with playoff wins, all while dealing with heavy legs, will be more important than at any point this season for either team.
Considering that they’ll need to win two games in a row including what would surely be a chaotic Game 7 on the road against the defending champs, the Spurs are in as good a position as possible given the circumstances. They’ll have a raucous San Antonio crowd behind them tonight that can hopefully give them any juice they might currently be lacking in these latter stages of the Western Conference Finals as they look to force that Game 7. The Spurs have surprised not only Silver and Black fans this season, but also the entire NBA audience as a whole. Do they have another surprise in them?
