View Full Version : Game Thread: Spurs @ Hawks - Feb 12th 2021 - 6:30PM CT
https://i.imgur.com/1YJVJ8B.png
San Antonio kicks off their annual Rodeo Road Trip in Atlanta against a Hawks team which has lost 4 out of their last 5 games.
The Spurs are coming fresh off a beatdown from Steph Curry, and Trae Young could be considered his younger brother, so their primary focus should be to help keep him under wraps.
Hopefully the squad has been smart enough to avoid going out to Magic City for chicken wings (or legs & thighs) and come in with the proper focus to start their journey off with a W.

I hope defending Curry prepared them somewhat. Bogdanovic and Rondo out. Well, that's something.
Spurs by 8pts and off to a good start on this Rodeo Trip. GSG! :flag::flag::flag:

Amazing block by Poetl and nice touch pass before going out of bounds.
Atlanta isn't really a shooting team outside of Trae, JC, are they?
Chinook
02-12-2021, 07:48 PM
Well that adds an interesting wrinkle to the Collins-to-SA talk.

John Collins, don’t fight with us :cry DeMar will be gone, we promise.

Keldon, what are you doing? We need him this offseason.
Dejounte

Keldon going out with Collins. I'll take Big Body :lol:lol
I thought it was DeMar and JC yelling at each other?
Lmao JC is for sure not coming here now...
So we were supposed to closely watch Collins interaction with Spurs` ?

DJ protecting Demar there.
PhantomDashCam
02-12-2021, 07:49 PM
Still think Atlanta should have drafted Haliburton. Would’ve fit right in. With Bogey injured, they lack secondary playmakers/shooters.
Chinook
02-12-2021, 07:50 PM
I don't think Murray was "right" there. Collins doesn't have to change his trajectory because Murray wanted to cut him off to help DeRozan up. The game was still going on.
Uriel
02-12-2021, 07:51 PM
So it was Murray.
John B
02-12-2021, 07:51 PM
That's goal tending, hit the board first
Chinook
02-12-2021, 07:52 PM
Is Collins really 6'10 or so?
Looks to be at least 6-8 or 6-9. He's clearly taller than guys who are listed at 6-7. But he's slight. He not a center at all.
rastaspur
02-12-2021, 07:52 PM
This is the optimal starting lineup. For sure.
Dejounte
02-12-2021, 07:54 PM
JC and Trae seems to have a repaired relationship...that hand on Trae while he's talking to him.
John B
02-12-2021, 07:54 PM
I like Demar attacking the rim early
John B
02-12-2021, 07:55 PM
2nd already on Lonnie??
Uriel
02-12-2021, 07:55 PM
Jakob is an elite rim protector and good finisher. He really reminds me of Tiago.
Chinook
02-12-2021, 07:56 PM
Should be an offensive foul. Walker wasn't in Young's path, and Trae jumped sideways to get the contact.
John B
02-12-2021, 07:56 PM
See that's not very smart foul
Should be an offensive foul. Walker wasn't in Young's path, and Trae jumped sideways to get the contact.
NBA needs to fix this, but they are all about their scoring numbers.
There are clips of Luka jumping like 4 feet forward into a defender and he gets three free throws.
John B
02-12-2021, 07:57 PM
Patty makes those stupid, already-committed, passes that are easy telegraphed
rastaspur
02-12-2021, 07:57 PM

Poeltl might protect the rim a little better and thiago was a little better in the pick n roll. That being said, very sim8lar skillsets and strengths.

Lonnies gotta stop thinking and just play free. You can literally see him thinking on almost every play. You can’t play in the NBA that way
Lonnie was lucky he got a hand on that ball, otherwise that was a wide open dunk
Whatever happened to playing solid defense instead of reaching anytime the ball comes in your general direction?
John B
02-12-2021, 08:03 PM

Incredible to think there really were people clowning on the FO for giving Jakob a measly $9M/per and locking him up for 3 whole years... I'm waiting just a bit more before I start bumping the thread with quotes. Ridiculous. Poeltl has been playing extremely well, he can definitely fill in as a starter (though I still don't see him starting an entire season, at least until he gets his FTs in check), and is a post move or two away from being a two-way contributor. He compliments our guard core extremely well and allows everyone to play looser, more perimeter-oriented defense while he holds the fort inside. Underrated player for sure.
We're playing some damn nice basketball. Who was that poster again saying we were oh so boring to watch this season, tbh?

Excellent man-to-man D by Vassell on Trae, forcing the airball. Then hits a contested 3 on the other side. This man is legit, sorry for doubting you, I was wrong.

You're inserting two guys who play defense, one of them is an all-around player and the other is the best defensive center by stats and taking out Lonnie and LMA from the starting lineup who weren't giving you shit.

Is Derrick finally playing well the secret ingredient to this team's success?
I said last game that it's a huge difference having Derrick playing and starting against the Warriors. Even if he wasn't scoring, I'd much rather have his defense and playmaking compared to Lonnie Walker out there (I know Walker didn't start last game, but Derrick helps the team so much more in other ways if his shot isn't on).

The defense from a Murray/White/Keldon/Jak lineup is beautiful tbh. Good enough to cover for Derozan too.
Nice reminder of old school Spurs bball.
Posted this in another thread, but games like this make me realize what trash the east is. 50-82 against the west before tonight (31 win pace).
Spurs have only played 3 games against the east and are the only team in the league with more games left against the other conference (27) than its own (20). Next lowest team is Denver at 6, and Houston at 7.
Watch the standings start to normalize when teams like Utah, Portland and Memphis play more games against the west. All of those teams have played very east-heavy schedules so far (48%+), while Spurs have played only 12% against the east.

Is Derrick finally playing well the secret ingredient to this team's success?
I mean, he was practically the only reason for wins last year before the bubble and now Murray, DDR, Johnson are all playing much better even without the addition of White. If he's back to normal it's a big plus.

He's been really tentative this game. He's not trusting "his game" (meaning bombing way too long 3's and trying to bait-foul players when he's not nutmegging them) much. Spurs are playing excellent defense, but I see him kind of be in his own head right now....

Yeah, I'll be the first to admit that I've hardly watched Hawks ball this season, but I really thought Collins would have more of an impact on the game. Besides that made 3 in the first, he's been kind of invisible, to me at least...
On a related note, I was reading the Luka thread where people were saying "if Luka keeps developing, we can use him as trade bait to get Collins!!", and even though there's obviously a gap between both.... If Luka at any point becomes the calibre of player that'd make the Hawks tempted to trade him for Collins (not straight-up of course, but still), why wouldn't we rather keep Luka instead? Especially considering the Spurs' MO....

Trae is a homeless man's Curry. Our guys are way more able to contain him that they did against Curry.
Curry is so fucking impressive. This year has made me appreciate his skills even more than before. Far more than a shooter, his advanced ball moves, his sense of personal and court space, the way he sees the floor and his teammates, the way he controls a game. Whatever talents he has, Trae shouldn't be compared.
John B
02-12-2021, 09:12 PM
