Tim Duncan led the way with 21 points and nine rebounds and Tony Parker added 14 points and 10 assists as the San Antonio Spurs blasted the visiting Oklahoma City Thunder, 101-74, on Saturday.
George Hill chipped in 16 points off the bench and DeJuan Blair scored 12 for the Spurs, who have won four straight.
San Antonio took control at the beginning, jumping out to a 19-9 lead and going up 31-17 at the end of the first quarter.
The Thunder had cut the deficit to single digits in the opening minutes of the third quarter before the Spurs went on another spurt. San Antonio closed the session on a 22-7 run to grab a 77-53 edge heading into the final quarter.
Oklahoma City never mounted a comeback in the fourth quarter, letting San Antonio’s bench take over without much of a fight.

The Thunder shot 33 percent from the field, including 1-of-7 from beyond the arc.
