Here’s a sample of what the teams said after the game courtesy of the Spurs.

Gregg Popovich

“It was a great night for us. We had a lot of guys play really well. We had career games by three or four guys. I’m just happy for them. They have been busting their butts all year. We don’t have many wins,” Popovich said. “Tonight we shot it pretty well. Made some good decisions. Happy for all of them.”

“I think it’s the defensive end, really. That’s the main thing for us. We came out in overtime and they scored right away but then we were able to string a few stops together,” Jones said. “We were able to get some stops in the middle of it all and that really helped us.”

Champagnie

“The most important is that we got the ‘w” [win] that’s what feels the best,” Champagnie said. “Definitely getting the win makes it a whole lot sweeter. I didn’t start off shooting threes. I started cutting to the basket. Kind of got moving a little bit. Got my blood flowing before I tried to find my shots up.”
