KJ (Keldon Johnson) drives, I get a wide-open three, he drives again. He gets wide open, lay up, right? It is just doing that as a collective and just trying to figure out ways, these different lineups of how we&#8217;re going to win.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think the fourth quarter, in general, giving up 40 points in a quarter and third is never going to be a good thing to this score well, but we have to do better defensively. But giving up only 14 points in the fourth quarter, I think, is where we hung our hat at the end of this game. I think HB (Harrison Barnes) carried us through offensively. I think he was big for us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Head coach Tuomas Iisalo:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>X:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/kens5\" rel=\"noreferrer noreferrer nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" id=\"isPasted\">\u00a0KENS 5<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/jeffgspurszone\" rel=\"noreferrer noreferrer nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">JeffGSpursKENS5<\/a><\/p>\n<p>    <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Spurs pick up the home win over the Grizzlies without Wembanyama and Castle.
