No idea why they wouldn't at least review it....shot at the end of the buzzer, dead ball.

That's what happens when you take away hand-checking, add lane violations, and allow players to flop for fouls to get 10-15 FTs a game.

Re: Game Thread: San Antonio Spurs at Memphis Grizzlies - Dec. 23, 2020 @ 7 PM CT
Pros:
Keldon Johnson
Dejonte Murray
Poeltls Screens are Elite, opens up so much
Interior Defense (as long as LMA sits)
Feeling the Bubble Energy provided by the young Guys
DDR letting young guys play
Negative:
Awful Perimeter Defense
LMA - He doesnt fit this team
To many open Looks for Memphis
Slow start of the game
-
Re: Game Thread: San Antonio Spurs at Memphis Grizzlies - Dec. 23, 2020 @ 7 PM CT
Can't lose to vending machine head. If they keep shooting from outside we're gonna win this game

We going 72-0!

Re: Game Thread: San Antonio Spurs at Memphis Grizzlies - Dec. 23, 2020 @ 7 PM CT
Damn this rotation is fun. Slot Derrick into Lonnie's starting position when he's back and we got a team. Will be tough for Lonnie to find minutes but oh well.

Less him figuring it out and more him playing with perimeter players who fit his style of play...
He also isn't handling the ball as the primary ball handler as much now...that has been derozan and mills...

Keldon making Scrub Kyle his bitch.

Re: Game Thread: San Antonio Spurs at Memphis Grizzlies - Dec. 23, 2020 @ 7 PM CT
Lonnies playmaking is really an untapped resource. He needs to be more aggressive obviously but Pop absolutely needs to call plays for him with the ball in his hand.

He fits well if they play at this pace. The problem is when the game slows down and he needs to run a halfcourt offense.
-
Re: Game Thread: San Antonio Spurs at Memphis Grizzlies - Dec. 23, 2020 @ 7 PM CT
Pretty sure he had a toe on the line.

Re: Game Thread: San Antonio Spurs at Memphis Grizzlies - Dec. 23, 2020 @ 7 PM CT
Lonnie just split the double team with ease. He needs to get to the rim more and stop being so passive

In addition to Pop playing the right starting lineup, he's also made the right decision not to give Lyles any minutest this half.

The whole team plays better with higher tempo. Problem ist that Gay and LMA are both slowing the game down. (even though gay did well in the bubble).
I hope both of them are capable of making the adjustment in the long term.

So who do we think the Spurs will be playing in the Finals?
-
Re: Game Thread: San Antonio Spurs at Memphis Grizzlies - Dec. 23, 2020 @ 7 PM CT
outscored them 36 to 20 this quarter. Keep that up and we got something. Also Keldon and DJ being the top scorers is dope
-
Re: Game Thread: San Antonio Spurs at Memphis Grizzlies - Dec. 23, 2020 @ 7 PM CT
That was a fun half, this is without White. It’s hard not to be excited about the potential.
