The Spurs have some amazingly competitive games against good teams for a club that can’t hit free throws or shoot three-point shots. For a team with those glaring flaws, combined with the tendency to go into long offensive funks where they can’t find their basket at all, it’s really surprising to me that they aren’t getting blown out, but the reason is that the team is just playing hard.
