San Antonio Spurs forward Tim Duncan, right, takes a forearm to the face as he is defended by Sacramento Kings center Brad Miller during the second quarter of the Sacramento Kings-San Antonio Spurs game played on Friday night. The Spurs won 96-80.?

To demonstrate how dominant the San Antonio Spurs are, just visualize this - the Spurs carry the lead from tip-off to the end of the game, and they rest most of their starters during the entire fourth quarter.? The Spurs did that tonight as they cruised past the winless Sacramento Kings 96-80 to remain undefeated at 3-0; they last were 3-0 during the 2000-01 season when they had the best record in the NBA.? The Kings simply had an off-night, shooting 39% from the floor with only 35 rebounds and only 15 assists for the entire game.

The Spurs’ scoring was balanced, led by forward-center Tim Duncan and point guard Tony Parker with 15 points apiece, with forward Ime Udoka adding 14, including three 3-pointers.? The Kings were led by shooting guard Kevin Martin with 22 points with swingman John Salmons adding 14.? The undefeated Spurs (3-0) do not play again until Tuesday, November 6, when they visit the Houston Rockets while the winless Kings (0-2) go up the road to face the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday.
