"It was great to see in the fourth quarter and in two overtimes that there was a lot of team execution. We looked like we'd played together before. I think more so than the All-Star break," said Gregg Popovich.

"I was a little tired but when you're trying to win basketball games, there's no excuse. I fought through it. The team fought through it and we came out with a huge team win," Murray said.

"I think I got much room for improvement and I'll continue to improve," said Johnson.
