Spurs dominate Rockets; ninth win in a row by double-digits

For a team most people think doesn’t really care about the regular season, the Spurs sure do seem to be making a statement as the playoffs approach.

The defending NBA champs beat the Rockets, 110-98, Wednesday for their ninth win in a row, all of which have come by at least a dozen points.

The Spurs are now tied with the 2008-09 Cavaliers and the 2012-13 Heat as the only teams in NBA history to accomplish such a feat, making them the first team without LeBron James to pull it off.

The Spurs led by as many as 22 points Wednesday night. They have now had a lead of at least 20 points in 10 of their last 12 games.
