Details and Personal Analysis
A match that was dominated from start to finish by the San Antonio Spurs where the Philadelphia 76ers were totally apathetic and had no reaction whatsoever, I thought the game was going to be more competitive but I was surprised by this overwhelming defeat that Spurs gives 76ers, through the Spurs' good offensive and defensive efficiency.
