Here's a sample of what the teams said after the game courtesy of the Spurs.
SPURS
Gregg Popovich
"Once again we had to come from behind," Popovich said. "Spotted them [Lakers] 20 points in the first half and in the second half we did everything better. We didn't make shots but as far as defense and rebounding we were much better, much more aggressive in the second half. We'll figure out ways to start better."
Sochan
"I thought we just picked up the intensity," Sochan said about the team's third period play. "Played a lot harder. Quicker on both sides of the court which I think helped us come back."
Jones
"In the second half we were able to find how we were playing before," Jones said. "That's definitely a positive for tonight. We were able to get back to the defense we wanted, the activity."
LAKERS
Lonnie Walker IV
Darvin Ham
“We had three outstanding defensive quarters, and a lot of slippage in that third quarter," said Ham. "We held them [Spurs] to 21 [points] in the first, 20 in the second, 19 in the fourth. But, that thirty-four points coming out of halftime is very extreme and something we’ve been struggling with all year."
Anthony Davis
"We’re better. I played well, Lonnie [Walker IV] came out hot, Troy [Brown Jr.] played well, and Dennis [Schroder] started to get in his rhythm; guys winning offensive rebounds, so because of that I think our entire team contributed to the win tonight," said Davis.
