Spurs trio’s milestone

LaMarcus Aldridge tallied 24 points and Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili posted their record 541st win as a threesome as the San Antonio Spurs stopped the Boston Celtics 95-87 on Sunday.

The Spurs star trio had a quiet night on the scoresheet but that didn’t take anything away from the milestone NBA win which fittingly came against the Celtics. “They’re three wonderful players,” said Spurs coach Gregg Popovich. “They just care about winning games.” The Spurs held off the Celtics to give the players the most victories by a threesome in NBA history, breaking their tie with Boston’s Larry Bird, Kevin McHale and Robert Parish. Center Duncan scored seven points, grabbed nine rebounds while guards Ginobili and Parker scored 13 and six points, respectively.
