Chapter 506 They Are Here

After losing two consecutive away games, the Spurs no longer had any margin for error; they needed to win at home or else, if they lost three games in a row, it would be akin to facing certain doom.

This was a predicament no team in history had ever reversed.

So, returning home, the Spurs realized that relying solely on defense to stop the Supersonics was unrealistic, and they had to play to their own strengths.

Just looking at the roster, the Spurs were not lacking at all.

Goran Dragic, Ginobili, Iguodala, Luol Deng, and Duncan.

Although they lacked a superstar in his prime like Yu Fei, they still had players of considerable strength at every position and could definitely compete with the Supersonics if they found their rhythm.

Back at home, the game became simpler for the Spurs.

They no longer exhausted themselves designing this or planning that on the defensive end.

This was proof that Popovich had accepted reality.
