Spurs 'embarrassed, deflated' after another rout

A 39-point loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday, coupled with Friday's debacle, gives the Spurs defeats by margins of 30 points or more in back-to-back outings for the first time in Gregg Popovich's tenure as coach. The loss also dropped the Spurs to 14th place in the Western Conference standings.

"Guys feel embarrassed, and deflated, and rightfully so," guard Patty Mills said. "It's the big picture. It's who we represent when we put thee jerseys on. It's who we play for. It's much bigger than that, and we need to understand that we are here just for a short time amongst this organization that will be here for a lot longer than we are.
