What we learned from Spurs preseason loss to the Hawks

The story of the night was two-fold: The Spurs offense finally showed up but their defense apparently didn’t make the flight to Atlanta. It was a preseason game, the Spurs are still working through their rotations, and LaMarcus Aldridge took the night off, so don’t trade everybody just yet. Even in a game where they gave up 130 points to a projected lottery team, it wasn’t all bad.

On the positive side, Derrick White’s poise in his first start in place of the injured Dejounte Murray stood out from the very beginning.
