The San Antonio Spurs had a strange month. On one hand, they had a solid record of 11-4 for November and had some strong performances on the road against some quality opponents, such as the Utah Jazz, Houston Rockets, Boston Celtics, and Charlotte Hornets. On the other hand, the Spurs were the recipients of some difficult losses at home and habitually struggled to close out fourth quarters, letting opponents crawl back into games in the final minutes. The Spurs rank 7th in offensive rating, a higher mark than could be expected for a team with so many new pieces, but rank an incredibly average 14th in defensive rating, a far cry from their almost record setting defensive rating last season.
