After the 104-119 loss last night to the Toronto Raptors, All-Star Dejounte Murray noted You got to fight, NBA, next man up... We tried, but thats a long talented team thats been together. They all get to their spots, whether its driving, kicking or finding the open man.<\/p>\n

One-Man Transition Hero? CHECK<\/p>\n

Though we were denied (for now) Coach Popovichs record setting victory, we know that this shirt will still make the rounds until the next Spurs win:<\/p>\n
More importantly, we still had the 39th birthday celebration from our favorite pants-optional mascot, The Coyote!<\/p>\n
