Spurs seal best record

DANNY Green drained seven three-pointers and scored 33 points on Friday as San Antonio assured itself of the best record in the NBA with a 112-104 win over Phoenix.

Green was 12 of 17 from the field and 7 of 10 from three-point range for the Spurs, who rallied from a 21-point deficit for a win that clinched home-court advantage throughout the playoffs.

San Antonio point guard Tony Parker, who sat out Thursday’s victory against the Dallas Mavericks, scored 18 points as the Spurs won their 15th straight home game.

Eric Bledsoe scored 30 points with 11 rebounds and nine assists for the Suns.

Phoenix is now tied with Memphis for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference. The Grizzlies, who beat the Philadelphia 76ers 117-95, hold the tiebreaker with the Suns by virtue of winning the head-to-head regular-season series.

Elsewhere, the Golden State Warriors secured a playoff berth with a 112-95 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers.
