San Antonio Spurs 99, Memphis Grizzlies 107: Spurs lose focus, game in second quarter collapse
by Jesse Blanchard
AT&T CENTER–Manu Ginobili and the San Antonio Spurs thought they had purged the mental collapses that plagued the team through most of the season, only to suffer a letdown last night against the Memphis Grizzlies.
Coming off a loss in Phoenix, the Spurs jumped on the Grizzlies early, holding them to 8-for-22 shooting in the first quarter for a 30-21 lead. It was the last time the defense was seen all night.
“It was a very disappointing loss, it was a game we were counting on,” said Manu Ginobili. “We should have won and had a one game advantage (over Oklahoma City and Portland), but now we have to go on a back-to-back flight to Denver against a great team that needs a win too.”
