Last night the young San Antonio got schooled by their elder statesmen Brooklyn Nets at the Barclay Center.
The game was ugly from start to finish, but the guys need to continue to get up off the mat, dust themselves off, and retain that knowledge for future reference.
Covering the likes of Kevin Durant is a great education for Jeremy Sochan. And learning to cover sharpshooters from beyond the arc is still taking shape. Mostly, the reminders that a team cannot win with bulk turnovers should be that much more embedded.
But one thing any Spurs player, new or old, should be aware of is this- Patty Mills knows how to take a charge.
