What We Learned from the Spurs loss to the Hornets

It sure feels like the last couple seasons of Spurs basketball could be categorized as ‘the rebuilding years,’ but it’s always been a sort of hard to nail down exactly when it started. Maybe it was when Kawhi Leonard left. Maybe it was when they missed the playoffs. Maybe it was the DeMar DeRozan trade. Who can say? The Spurs have certainly fought the good fight, so to speak, as far as trying field a competitive team while developing young talent for a while, and that has led us on an interesting little walkabout. However, the time for messing around is clearly finished and the real, dirty business of starting over is finally here.
