POST-GAME INTERVIEWS
Imagine Pop sitting behind you in a movie theatre with that candy wrapper
This is like the time he unwrapped a sandwich in a post-game interview. Either there's a sugar dip situation or a refocusing to channel anger situation:“We are still a young group, but we have smart players, young guys who want to listen and get better,” guard Josh Richarson. “Hopefully, one of these days, it really starts kicking in. I think it just takes us to string together a couple of games where we do play that full 48 to see what it looks like, to see how hard you have to play the whole game. And then hopefully that becomes the standard.”
Popovich has pretty much strictly adhered to the medical staff restricting center Jakob Poeltl to 20 minutes a game after he returned from a bone bruise in his right knee that forced him to miss seven consecutive games.
Since coming back to the court against Miami on Dec. 17 in Mexico City, he’s played 21, 23, 22 and 21 minutes.
The Spurs are 1-3 in that span.
“You can tell he’s still trying to work his way back in after coming off the injury that he had,” Jones said.

“Lack of communication for us,” Spurs point guard Tre Jones said of what allowed the Magic to shoot so many uncontested 3s. “They continued to run the same action to shoot open threes, and they weren’t missing.”
