it goes to show you just how delicate things are in the playoffs.

0:08.7

And what I'm talking about if you didn't see it is that Dylan Harper,

0:11.9

their very talented rookie from Rutgers, was starting in the backfield because

Darren Fox had been hurt.

0:16.8

He pulls a hamstring last night.

0:18.3

Yep.

And what's the, Stefan Castle is basically the guy that that's handled on the ball for the Spurs right now. In two games, he has 20 turnovers. And it just goes to show you, you've got to have depth, you've got to have people that know what they're doing. And there's a lot of pressure on Castle out there now in San Antonio.
