San Antonio Spurs Need to Bench Richard Jefferson
The San Antonio Spurs made a pretty big trade a few years ago when they were able to acquire Richard Jefferson for Kurt Thomas, Bruce Bowen, and Amir Johnson.

Parker, Spurs Too Much for 76ers
So, Wednesday night the Philadelphia 76ers found out there is a team hotter than they are. The streaking San Antonio Spurs came into Philadelphia and rode the hot hand of Tony Parker to a sixth straight win, beating the 76ers 100-90.
Many felt that the older and slower Spurs would struggle to pick up the slack with do-everything guard Manu Ginobili already missing 22 games, but Tony...

The Spurs manhandling of the Oklahoma City Thunder brought to light an interesting question: Just how good is this team? Playing without perennial All Star Manu Ginobili, the San Antonio Spurs downed the best team in the league without much of a fight.
