    Postgame reaction after the Golden State Warriors beat the San Antonio Spurs 97-87 in Game 4 of their NBA Western Conference semifinals on Sunday at Oracle Arena in Oakland, California.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Gregg Popovich, San Antonio Spurs Head Coach

    "Obviously you give attention to people like (Stephen) Curry and (Klay) Thompson. But you'd have to do the whole deal. Tonight, (Harrison) Barnes and (Jarrett) Jack were tremendous. They got the job done for 'em. So when other people step up, that's always a great thing in these games. And usually the playoffs, teams that win, have other people step up at some point in a series. And those two guys did it tonight in really fine fashion."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Mark Jackson, Golden State Warriors Head Coach

    "Like I said, this is the greatest group of guys that I've been around, a bunch of warriors, no pun intended. We won this game the last 17 minutes by not turning the basketball over. With four minutes to go, they had 82 points. So, in nine minutes they score five points. We are a defensive minded team. I got a young basketball team that's got incredible heart. And I'm so proud of those guys from the first guy to the last guy."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Harrison Barnes, Golden State Warriors Forward

    "I think the biggest thing for just me personally was just the defense that we played in the second half. In the first half, I thought our coaches gave us a great game plan discipline for us to do and we just didn't put forth the effort. So, I think in the second half and overtime, we were able to correct that. So, I just take a lot of pride in that personally, that we were able to give that effort, do what we needed to do, make those little plays that end up in stops, turnovers, steals and breaks for us."
