Thoughts on this game.

[SpursPreacher]

First off I think this one goes into a bad night at the office.Spurs couldnt make shots the sixers made everything literally everything it seems.

But also this is also a fault of being lazy on the defensive side the last few games.The spurs need to come with more defensive energy and be focused for 48 minutes a night. But fear not they always say defense is the last thing to come around so I expect it come around soon.

For some reason, spurs have adopted the habit of not contesting long-range shots. It means that they are ot running out to shooters and are lazy on rotations.

Letdown after Lakers, just like NO v NY.

Spurs D is way off right now, but it will come back.

Bring on the Bulls.

this is the downside of the lakers game. had it been on a back-to-back for the spurs, there might have been some carry over. let's move on to the next game.

We lost. Badly. We will talk about whom to trade tommorow.

I didn't see the game, but it looks like that sunk us tonight (they shot 60% from 3).

Other stand-out stats:
Finley/Ginobili/Hill combined to shoot about 17% from the field.

Oberto/Croshere combined for 5/11 on the boards.
Bonner/Thomas combined for 2/6.

That may not mean much if Oberto/Croshere played in trash time though...

the shot blockers of Philly really intimidated the entire Spurs squad, just about everyone seemed afraid to enter the paint.

It was clearly Philly's night, 3 buzzer beaters? Come on now.

NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER have I seen 3 pointers at the buzzer at the end of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd quarters in ANY game and one from half court in a NBA, WNBA, High School. lol. So when that shit's going down for you, you know its your night.

Thats about what I seen myself. Now I understand why Dalembert is only 2nd to Dwight on the allstar voting for east centers. Last time I checked anyways. He can swat those balls for sure.

You must be referring to Theo Dalembert or is it Sam Ratliff.. wish we had one.
