Pop: Focused on Learning, Not the Record

If Spurs coach Gregg Popovich had his way, his players would avoid the NBA standings right now as if they were a rogue bat loose in the AT&T Center.

At 4-6, the Spurs are off to their worst 10-game start since 1996-97, the season before Tim Duncan arrived. They have lost three in a row, and tonight against Washington, will look to avoid their first four-game losing streak since March 2008.

“We just have to stay the course,” Popovich said. “Stay focused on the learning part, and not the record part.”

Players admit that can be easier said than done.

“It's tough to hang in,” Antonio McDyess said. “I've been through worse, but when you're on a good team and expecting to win, it's kind of hard.”
