Here's a sample of what the teams said after the game courtesy of the Spurs and Thunder:

SPURS

"Tough loss. A disappointing loss. OKC deserved to win. They played harder than we did for more of the 48 minutes for sure. We lost the game in the second quarter," Gregg Popovich.

"We gave up about 12 or 15 points in the second quarter just by being full of ourselves," Drew Eubanks.

"We got to learn from that. Not just settling and doing what we do to keep those leads," Lonnie Walker IV.

"We just got to come together. When these scoring droughts come, we try and do it ourselves," Lonnie Walker IV.

THUNDER

"The coaches challenged us to bring more physicality. They [Spurs] got us in the first half on some plays," Mike Muscala.
