Kawhi Leonard drops 47 on the Nets, leading to blowout victory.

Kawhi-eting the Brooklyn crowd.

A contentious first half aside, Kawhi Leonard dominated the third quarter with his Spurs and finished with 47 points (18-26 FG%, with 4 steals), outsmarting double teams and crushing a jam past Brooklyn's big man, Jarrett Allen.

The Claw had 29 points in the first half, and Rudy Gay (22 points, 9-15 FG%, 4 steals) also had a nice showing. The Nets shot well at home, but had a horrendous third quarter effort, roasted 35-10 by the visiting Spurs. The Spurs won this game 123-95, a sudden blowout situation as San Antonio capped 100 points to mark the end of the third quarter.

Some fun moments were had, sure, with D'Angelo Russell dropping a bomb from down range to end the first (29-28, SA). It was Iman Shumpert's 3PT dagger to cap the half 65-56, with both teams shooting 65% at the break. Brooklyn would unfortunately go ice cold in the third, silencing the previously stoked crowd.

Spencer Dinwiddie went 2-7, as D'Lo found himself hounded all game long by Avery Bradley (11 assists). Sharpshooter Joe Harris was chilly in this game, going 5-16 and 2-8 from distance. For the champions, Dejounte Murray had 14 points and 5 assists. Skal Labissiere notched 10 points and Kyle O'Quinn yanked down 10 rebounds with 7 points.
