The Spurs couldn’t duplicate the improbably efficient offense of Monday night’s game, and couldn’t get stops when they needed them, and that resulted in a loss tonight. In the end, it was the offensive star power of James Harden, who looked a little rusty to start the game, but used his economical offensive game to score when he needed to and keep the game out of reach late, even when a deep bench unit of Keita Bates Diop, Tre Jones, Devin Vassell and Gorgui Dieng provided energy at the end of the game against the Nets first unit. There were many positives to take out of this game for the Silver and Black, but securing a win wasn’t one of them.
