SPURS
Gregg Popovich:
"Other than the start of the game where we looked like a deer in headlights, we weren't aggressive at all. They (Bucks) came at us with such a barrage offensively making shots that I think we got down. But after that, I thought we played a pretty good game. Keldon obviously got aggressive."
Collins:
"I think we were just asleep for probably the first four minutes. It didn't help that we couldn't hit a shot but I think our mindset just from the jump wasn't good. We have to be more professional. Start games better because we played pretty well the rest of the way. That hurts when all we had to do was start a little bit better. Be more aggressive."
