Following the San Antonio Spurs' 95-91 loss to the Chicago Bulls Thursday, Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich was blunt in his assessment of how his team performed.
According to ESPN.com's Michael C. Wright, Popovich lamented the notion that the Spurs failed to turn in a full, 48-minute effort:
We played 24 minutes again, as we have for about the last 10 games. We go through the motions in the first half. I think we shot one free throw in the first half. We shot four or so the second half.
