The San Antonio Spurs gave the Golden State Warriors their seventh loss of the season on Saturday, holding MVP Stephen Curry to 14 points on 4-for-18 shooting, including 1-for-12 from behind the 3-point line. Afterward, Curry told reporters that he didn't play smart enough, but he didn't sound too worried about the result, either.
"There is no panic at all," Curry said, via the San Antonio Express-News' Tom Orsborn. "We'll be fine. It's a good learning experience."
It's easy to overreact to one high-profile game, especially one in which the defending champs seemed so discombobulated offensively, so let's remember a few things:
1) Golden State was on the second night of a back-to-back, and San Antonio was not.
