r thhe remainder of the game against a stout Seahawks defense.d

Despite seven new faces and the offseason retirement of future Hall of Fame forward Tim Duncan, its been business as usual for the San Antonio Spurs over the first four games of the new campaign.The Spurs look to continue their hot start when they host the Utah Jazz on Tuesday at the AT&T Center.San Antonio has won all four times its taken the court, thrice on the road, and is already in the routine of resting veteran players for the rigors of the eight-month-long journey to the postseason.The Spurs gave starting point guard Tony Parker and reserve guard Manu Ginobili the night off against New Orleans on Saturday but San Antonio cruised to an easy 98-79 win.Part of the Spurs early success has been the play of their reserves, especially point guard Patty Mills, who scored 18 points on 6-of-9 shooting against the Pelicans in a spot start for Parker and then added another 18-point game off the bench in San Antonios 106-99 victory at Miami on Sunday.DeWanye Dedmond, one of the Spurs under-the-radar offseason acquisitions, has contributed seven points and 7.3 rebounds per game while playing an average of 18 minutes and already has eight blocked shots.David Lee, who has taken some of the minutes that belonged to David West last year, is scoring eight points per game and pulling down 6.8 rebounds per outing in an average of just under 17 minutes.Dedmond has been very active and has been doing a wonderful job off the bench, as has Lee, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said Saturday. DeWanyes game is running and giving us some energy, and David is a basketball player -- he knows how to play and fits into any kind of situation.The Jazz (1-2) head to San Antonio on the heels of a 88-75 road loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday.George Hill paced Utah with 18 points while reserve guard Dante Exum was the only other Jazz player to reach double figures with 10. Joe Johnson scored seven points in the opening quarter, but didnt score again.The four starters other than Hill -- Johnson, Boris Diaw, Rudy Gobert and Rodney Hood -- combined for just 20 points.I didnt believe it was a good night for me -- its a team game, not individual, Hill said after the loss. My stats dont mean anything if we lose a game like we did (Sunday).Jazz forward Gordon Hayward sat out his third straight game with a broken finger on his left hand and likely will not play in Tuesdays contest.Although San Antonio is often considered the most international team in the NBA, the Jazz have supplanted the Spurs in far-flung flavor this year, with seven players from outside the United States: center Gobert and forward Diaw (France), guard Dante Exum and forward Joe Ingles (Australia), guard Raul Neto (Brazil), forward Trey Lyles (Canada) and forward Joel Bolomboy (Ukraine).On Monday the Jazz beat the Oct. 31, 11:59 p.m. EDT deadline to avoid restricted free agency by agreeing to a four-year contract extension with Gobert worth $102 million, according to league sources. The contract is just short of the projected maximum offer of $106 million. Lawrence Taylor Jersey .

TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers center Joe Hawley has accused a Seattle Seahawks player of spitting in his face Sunday at Raymond James Stadium.Speaking Thursday on the Joe Hawley Show on Tampa Bay Sports Radio 620 WDAE, Hawley said he believes rookie Jarran Reed was the culprit.Yeah I think thats who it was, Hawley said of Reed, though he wasnt 100 percent certain. They were hitting me late and then one guy got up, and when I came up all fired up, he actually spit in my face after one of the plays. And that really got me fired up because I just dont think that should be a part of the game at all.Reed on Friday denied that he spit in Hawleys face.I dont know why he would think that, bring that allegation towards me, Reed said. I saw something saying we were hitting them late. ... You can go back and watch the film. You will see. If he thinks hes a clean player, then I dont know what to tell you. ?But as far as the allegations that I spit in his face, thats not true. Show me the play. Show me why I did it. Then you can say something. But other than that, I just think its funny.I thought we were all grown men. I think its pretty funny. He sounds like a 14-year-old girl, Oh he spit in my face and all that.The Bucs won 14-5 thanks to two early touchdown throws from Jameis Winston to Mike Evans?but struggled to move the ball for thhe remainder of the game against a stout Seahawks defense.ddddddddddddI mean, its one thing thing [to be] pushing, shouting, yelling. But as soon as he spit in my face, I was pretty fired up about that, Hawley said. Hes a young guy. I guess he just -- thats not the way to do it.At one point during the game, after the Seahawks made a stop on third-and-2, Hawley had to be restrained from Reed and other Seahawks players who were pushing and shoving. No flags were thrown, however.Hawley said he thinks Seahawks players were frustrated with Tampa Bays physical play.The way we were playing -- we decided we were gonna play hard and get after them because we knew thats the way they played, he said. And I think they were surprised when that happened, so they tried to talk about it and then we continued to do it and they started getting chippy with it. I just dont think they were used to the way we were playing, how hard we were playing. I guess they were the only ones who thought they were allowed to play like that.Said Reed:?I guess he couldnt block a rookie the way he wanted to. So Id be pretty pissed too. Hey, I guess he needs to do a better job.ESPN Seahawks reporter Sheil Kapadia contributed to this report. ' ' '
