Speaking after the match Spurs' coach Gregg Popovich said, "All of us know what a great player he was, but he went beyond great playing. He was a competitor - that goes unmatched. It's what made him as a player so attractive to everybody - that focus, that competitiveness, that will to win. And even more importantly than that, we all feel a deep sense of loss for what he meant to all of us in so many ways, and so many millions of people loved him for so many different reasons. It's just a tragic thing."
