Garnett dominates Duncan; Spurs win anyway

MINNEAPOLIS - Michael Finley scored 21 points, including the last six for San Antonio, to help the Spurs hold off the Minnesota Timberwolves 90-88 on Thursday night.

Kevin Garnett got the best of Tim Duncan with 24 points and a season-high 21 rebounds, but the Timberwolves dropped their third straight game when Troy Hudson's off-balance, running jumper in traffic at the buzzer fell short.

Garnett, who was wide open at the top of the key, had a glum look on his face when Finley 錕斤拷 whom Minnesota actively pursued on the free-agent market this summer 錕斤拷 approached him and put his arms on his shoulders in consolation.

Duncan had 13 points and nine rebounds, missing four of his seven free-throw attempts. He was 5-for-20 from the foul line in his previous two games.

Garnett made a pair of free throws to bring the Wolves to 80-76 with 4:44 remaining, the closest they got since the second quarter. Hudson did the same to make it 84-80, but Brent Barry found Finley open on a baseline cut 錕斤拷 and the 11-year veteran swished a jumper to put San Antonio back up by six.

After Marko Jaric's layup, Finley sank a 3-pointer to increase the lead to seven.

Minnesota didn't quit, cutting the lead to 89-87 on a layup by Wally Szczerbiak 錕斤拷 who had 23 points 錕斤拷 with 1:09 to play. Tony Parker was called for a charging foul against Hudson, giving the Wolves a great chance to tie it.

Jaric missed a layup, Anthony Carter missed a long jumper and Garnett missed a turnaround. Jaric grabbed another rebound and was fouled with 5.8 seconds remaining, but he made only one of two foul shots.

Finley then went 1-for-2 at the line on the other end after drawing a foul, setting up the final possession. The Spurs, who improved to 18-4, are 16-0 when they shoot 45 percent or better from the field.

Hudson, back from a four-game absence due to knee and calf injuries, sparked the Timberwolves late in the third period after substituting for Michael Olowokandi with less than 5 minutes left.

Hudson had two assists and six points in that stretch before the buzzer, bringing Minnesota to 63-58.
