The Spurs called a timeout.
Popovich stood with his arms crossed, his expression stern and grim as he looked at the players gathering around him.
He wasn't exactly a good-tempered person.
With the opponent's star player out, he had ten thousand reasons to chew them out for the game being this close.
But reason won out.
If they were going to lose this game, it wasn't entirely because the Spurs were slacking or playing poorly.
The truth was, their opponents were playing out of their minds today.
From three-point range, the Pioneers had somehow shot 14 for 23, a terrifying field goal percentage of over fifty percent.
The Spurs had also been practicing their threes all season with the help of Chen Yu's team, but they'd never been this accurate.
Besides, the entire Pioneers team was playing with an all-out ferocity, their morale was soaring, and they were truly fighting for their lives.
Nash's injury had clearly ignited the fighting spirit of these young Pioneers!
