After a terrible outing versus the Los Angeles Clippers, the San Antonio Spurs need to play again as quickly as possible.
In basketball, the first game back after any extended layoff can be difficult. Basketball is a rhythm game, so whether it's after an offseason, an All-Star break, or sweeping a playoff series; getting back into that rhythm doesn't always come immediately.
The San Antonio Spurs' loss to the Los Angeles Clippers Thursday night was the first game back from a week-long All-Star break. As a result, bad basketball plays abounded. Over the course of this game, there were so many defensive breakdowns, turnovers, and badly missed shots that it was difficult not to just turn the game off.
