SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Kings coach Mike Brown didn’t mince words after his team suffered one of its worst losses of the season with the start of the playoffs less than two weeks away.
Brown questioned his team’s physical and mental toughness following a 142-134 overtime loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday before a record-setting sellout crowd of 18,183, saying the Kings have been “soft” on their home court.
“We have not been good defensively at home,” Brown said. “The reality of it is we play sort of soft at home, and I hate to say it, but that’s what it is. It’s factual. We have trouble stopping people on our home floor and the tough part about it is our crowd is fantastic.
