Teamwork trumps individual brilliance

Posted on April 30, 2010 by Kevin Hart

Scoreboards don’t lie. It’s therefore irrefutable that San Antonio beat Dallas 97-87 to close out the series. The older, more experienced and wiser Spurs dominated with brilliant teamwork (great article about the win). I watched the game while working away … Continue reading →
