Castle showing out!

This is another one of those games where some Bassey minutes might help slow down the big physical center who is beasting Zach Collins

Collins doing his little blitz during screens doesn't work against AD but he keeps doing it anyway. Immediately sells the possession and the defense.

[Jordan Jackson]

Wemby is going to have to play a lot in the 2nd half to have a chance. Spurs bench are chaos agents - so he’s going to have to play if they want a chance at winning.

AD is lighting up Zach Collins but everyone is going to point to Wemby.

[siraulo23]

why challenge that call?

spurs transition defense in this game so far got damn

[Frenchfred]

Agreed... I keep saying every 10 games they have decent showings and Spurs fans keep thinking they have a chance... And I keep saying nah they don't... They will NEVER be good players, and tha faster we realize that and move on as an organization, the better we will be... OKC is amazing right now despite being just as young as us because they didn't waste time trying to develop players that are obviously bad

We have for sure two picks next year and potentially 4, I'm guessing that these might last long if they don't improve

[Chomag]

Mitch just trying to parrot Pop instead of being his own coach

[RC_Drunkford]

our defense is swiss cheese ever since Jeremy got injured

[onechance87]

Stop forcing keldon,wesley or branham to run this offense.Should be cp3,castle,wemby and vassell running the show.

[ginobilized]

Wemby not playing allowed castle to step up. CIA Mitch

CIA Pop

Mensa Mitch
Dude went to Stanford

[scott]

i'd get it if they were easing him back from an injury/illness, second of a b2b, or if he's in foul trouble. but nah

Seems like the typical rotation is for him to play more minutes in the second half. I’d betting he still finishes around 34-35 min.

[LeBowen]

Well, Re 's speech didn't work at all.

[Raven]

back in the game

[timtonymanu]

I was worried Castle’s 3 point shooting would be Sochan level raw, but he’s been getting better at making them fast. Damn, what a nice player overall.

[rankingtear]

Castle looks like an all-nba caliber prospect.

[Rosewood]

I’ve seen more than enough, Castle was 100% the right choice. We still should have grabbed Edey or Knecht with 8 though.

[onechance87]

dont u take castle out coach.Let him play him the qtr

[Chomag]

CP3 turned back the clock a couple of years on that drive

[Dejounte]

Castle is a lesson in not judging a book by its cover tbh

you don’t put too much emphasis in shooting when they have everything else

shooting percentages can improve. They’re not the end all be all

[heyheymymy]

Bron 1 ast away from 4 consecutive triple doubles in as many games

hats off

[Kawhi Duncan]

Wemby seems scared to guard AD
