San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said he sat his entire starting line-up just 52 seconds into the second half against the Memphis Grizzlies because they started like they "were out on a picnic".
The Spurs trailed 50-46 at half-time in game three of the playoff series with the Grizzlies, but a trio of errors saw them fall nine points adrift just one minute into the third quarter at FedExForum.
Popovich reacted by pulling Kawhi Leonard, LaMarcus Aldridge, Dewayne Dedmon, Danny Green and Tony Parker out of the game, with Memphis going on to secure a 105-94 win, though they still trail 2-1 in the series.Nike Free Run 5 Men,Cheap Free Run 5 Women,Nike Free 5.0 Flyknit Men,Cheap Nike Free 4.0 Flyknit Shoes,Nike Roshe Run,Nike Roshe One Yeezy Women Shoes,Best Air Max 2017,Air Max 2016 Men On www.cheapairmax2017.net"
"We turned it over twice to start the minute like we were out on a picnic someplace," Popovich said in his post-match news conference.
"I don't know. Those two turnovers, and then the mistake defensively where Marc [Gasol] got the three-pointer at the top, and all of a sudden, it was a nine-point game.
