Silver lining:
On the other hand...
Like our chances to head to Atlanta with a winning record.
- We played the Spurs even on the boards.
- We got to the line, and shot a good percentage.
- Assist rate was good: 22 assists on 28 made baskets.
- Cousins avoided foul trouble, was available down the stretch, and kept us in the game.
On the other hand...
- Too many unforced errors against a team as disciplined as the Spurs.
- Lost composure at the end of the third, during the stretch that cost us the game.
- Got virtually nothing from the bench. On that note, still waiting to get two consecutive halves out of McLemore. Kid was equally as essential to the first half run as he was in the third quarter collapse.
