When the San Antonio Spurs left town for their game against the Houston Rockets, perhaps Coach Popovich replaced their milk & cookies with Big Red & barbacoa, because the game played out as if Santa had put a lump of coal in each of their stockings. The team dragged their feet for most of the game, the defense (especially the rebounding) was atrocious (giving up too many second chance points for my liking) and there was little confidence behind most shots attempted.
