As watched our clearly exhausted heroes just chucking up threes and hoping for the best in a 4th quarter at the end of a week in which they played five games in seven nights, I was just like, “yea man, I’ve been there before.” I feel nothing about this loss. I’m taking a hard look at the “moral victory” option and deciding I’m all set. The Bucks were favored by and 9 in this one and they only won by 7. The Spurs gave two of their most important players the night off. The world went on turning.
It’s kind of wild to spend roughly two days locked into the excitement of March Madness and then capping it off with a regular season NBA game being played in a mostly empty arena.
