“This team has character, besides the talent and the desire to win,” Spurs Spaniard center Pau Gasol who finished the game with 10 points and 5 rebounds, said. “We have to keep that up every single night. We responded well when they made their run, and that’s the mindset we have to have every night.”
French icon Tony Parker had 15 points for the Spurs, who had two others score in double figure, while for the losing side Pau’s brother Marc Gasol added 12 points and 6 rebounds.
In the East Kyrie Irving scored 37 points, Kevin Love added 27, LeBron James had 25 and the Cleveland Cavaliers avoided another fourth-quarter collapse in Game 2, beating the Indiana Pacers 117-111 to take a 2-0 lead in the series. French big man Kevin Seraphin had 6 points and 4 rebounds for the Pacers.
