Before this Spurs run, Fox has only ever played one playoff series and lost. People should stop saying he’s got veteran and playoff experience.
I don’t want to sound like a jerk, but every time they do a close up of Fox on the court he has this expression like it’s the first time he’s ever seen the world. Like Scott Bakula just quantum leaped into his body ten minutes before the game.
