« The magic of basketball »

San Antonio came back from hell after winning Memphis OT 110-103.
Tony, thanks to this victory over Memphis, San Antonio is still alive…
It was hell of a game, a real ball game, a game in which the players didn’t want to die. Just crazy with many turnarounds. A struggle for 2 and a half hours! It’s even bigger that Memphis was leading 15sec before the end. A real crazy night with Manu’s shoot 15sec before time expires and then OT thanks to Gary Neal’s 3-pointer. It’s the magic of basketball.
And at that moment you took over the game…
What happened in these 5 minutes was really important to me. I wasn’t that good since the series started, nothing was going the way I wanted. I didn’t let go even though it was hard to live and understand. But the tables turned, I scored when I had to. It felt so good.
So one can easily think confidence is back for Game 6 on Friday.
I can now tell you for sure we’re going there as warriors. Memphis caused us big problems. There’s a good reason they’re leading the series. But tonight confidence is back. We can turn the situation around and win on the road.
