From the Express-News:
“It hasn’t responded the way we wanted it to,” coach Gregg Popovich told the Express-News after the team’s morning shootaround in Manhattan.
“He’s given it a shot. He’s frustrated as hell. He wants to play badly. But if we’re going to err, we’re going to do it on the side of health and being wise.”
