Spurs Fiesta 5: San Antonio Tiebreaker vs. Houston Revealed
"Today, the NBA broke the ties based on records, including one between the San Antonio Spurs and Houston Rockets."
“We live here in this region, all the way from Mexico all the way to up here, and we’d like to spread that experience we’ve had with the Spurs to another area, and to do that we have to make the effort to be seen and to get up here and to play some games," Gregg Popovich said. "And I think we will do that every year now. I don’t think, I know, and this is the start of it.”
"This season, Bates-Diop averaged 9.7 points, 3.7 rebounds on 50 percent shooting, which all mark either the highest or the second-highest numbers of his career."
