Game Thread: Sixers @ Spurs — Mon. (12/17) - 7:30/C (3:30am Riga Time)

The thing is that White has proven to do a lot of those things he doesn't seem to be able to do on the NBA, on the G-league.

I know folks will say: "key Word: G-league" but the difference between the NBA and the G-league is more on offense than defense. There isn't a shortage of athletic guys that can run fast, jump high and give effort on the G-league.

Also, there are things that translate directly from one league to the other: a step back three isn't that much more difficult on the NBA than on the G-league, neither is finishing on traffic, and much less of all it is making an open jumper. White has proven the ability to do all those things (to give you an example, a guy like Murray didn't prove that. Not even on the G-league). White's isn't a problem of talent. It is a problem of confidence.

Inconstistency and lack of confidence are pretty much the main characteristics of young players. and it's not like he's playing in a young, tanking or building team with no pressure. He's got LMA, GAY and DDR to feed and make happy in a team still searching for its iden y.

Talent is there indeed, White just need some burn and feel he's got his teammates and coach's trust.

I'm telling you guys, Q-Pon can draw fouls.

[skin27]

that loss to the bulls!!

we should have 6 game winning streak!!

[TDomination]

Keep them under 100!

[JeffDuncan]

Eubanks is slick close to the basket.

[playbonner15]

Sucks that we get QPon and Cunningham instead of Lonnie NoPants Walker

[hater]

Eubanks looks like a prime Olajuwon

[hater]

Everyone scored accept Cunningham lol

[skin27]

Nice win!!!

[Chinook]

Eubanks is slick close to the basket.

The scouting report on him was that he had a lot of post skills. I hate that he doesn't seem to have any range and below-average mobility, but I don't see why he can't hang out on the bubble for a few years at least. He has a legit NBA skill, even if that skill is currently undervalued.

[TDomination]

5th straight game holding an opponent to under 100. Not too shabby

[Down Under]

Held teams under 100 for five in a row, which is an improvement, even at home.

This Jekyll and Hyde team. Wish they would get their together and be consistent for a period

I was at the game tonight! Good stuff out there, Rudy Gay was a beast

[anon]

Scott Foster the upset facilitator is crewing. Spurs might win. At the very least the spread will be covered.

How does Bertans look in person?

Pretty damn good! davis definitely is the teams best shooter, the guy gets beat up out there though lol

[MoSpur02]

Nice win. 76ers look tired. I'll take it though. I mean good teams have to take advantage when the opportunity is there. Spurs did that tonight. Rudy Gay is now my favorite Spur. The guy continues to show up and ball.

[Larry O]

Whew! Whata Win!!! Looked shaky there in the beginning of the game there. It appeared that the 76ers were going to blow this game wide open, especially with LMA's 2 early fouls and the poor shooting by the team, but they hung in there and played great defense to hold off the 76ers and players like Bertans got hot from outside. Well... it will be interesting to see what lineup Pop will use against the Magic on Wednesday. Will it be Bertans or DC33 or DW4? Bertans seems to be the best player of those other mentioned players, to be in the starting lineup. GSG!!!

[TDomination]

Most people had this chalked as a loss so I guess it makes up for inexcusable bulls loss.

Great win! I hope they can least win 4 in a row again before the next loss
