Game Thread: Spurs at Knicks - Nov. 23, 2019 @ 6:30pm CT

The season is still young!

Giving up 27, 28, and 33 to the damn Knicks in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarters is a problem. If they can't get the defense under control, you're going to wish this season was over by the ASB.

First game I didn’t watch live. Recorded it should I watch?

First half is pretty fun. Wouldn't watch the second half, tbh

[ZeusWillJudge]

Been saying it for almost a year. Derrick knows how to set up a big. He makes LMA better. Derrick just has waaay more PG vision/instincts than Murray.

I think White's accomplishment last season is still underappreciated. I hope he can get it back, and I hope his foot won't be an ongoing problem.

Is Derozan throwing games? down the stretch terrible turnovers. Maybe he wants to be traded

I thought Rudy was the one trying to throw this one. Back-to-back he took a baseline turnaround jumper early in the shot clock and then on the other end he literally walked into a Knick (I forgot who) as he drilled a corner three.

Oh boi

All the naysayers are big mad tonight lol

I’m personally glad we beat the worst team in the East by only 7 points

The foot is an obvious problem, and I don't get Pop's suddenly pushing him out there. I think Pop may have already ruined Derrick for the Spurs by gifting the starting PG job to Dijon, who isn't even a PG. Derrick is gonna be a nice George Hill for some other team.

[sasaint]

No!

Tried to. Would have against any other opponent except GS.

[spurs1990]

Lol Hornets

Got McGrady'd. 15 year anniversary

[tbdog]

Did Carroll play the second half? Seemed like he didn't. And more Walker please.

[Budkin]

2nd half was just as bad as every other game this season.

[timtonymanu]

Knicks
only team not getting a win against this year’s Spurs team

[SupremeGuy]

We can't even tank. Smh. What the are the Spurs doing?

[Uriel]

We finally won? Thank .

[Degoat]

Spurs rank 5th in offensive rating in the NBA this year so far, tonight was a good step forward for the defense too! Clean some things up and will be back in the hunt

Why reinvent the wheel?

Fast forward to late in the 3rd if you want to see what defense and athleticism Lonnie brings to the tean

[spurs10]

Oh boi

Think we were up by 20 at the half and then we got down as low as 7. Won by 7 instead of 10 because some yahoo shot the ball when he was dribbling out the ball. First half was a much better defensive effort even though they did score 27 in the second quarter.

[jjktkk]

Wasted lottery leverage tbh...

I don't think you're being honest, tbh.

Just watch the Lonnie highlights in the second half tbh.

I can see why Lonnie Walker isn’t getting minutes but also probably should when Forbes is struggling bc he does everything better besides shooting

[cjw]

Second game of a back to back. I chalk some of the defensive effort up to them taking foot off gas with game easily in hand.

But still, Knicks clanked a lot of shots and defense wasn’t good.

[RC_Drunkford]

It's simple: Play Carroll and Walker instead of Belinelli and Forbes. This time Carroll and Walker got playing time cause Murray was out and Forbes in foul trouble. Forbes shouldn't be averaging the 3rd most minutes on the team

[Thomas82]

Things should get back on course in the next week or so when the Spurs play the Lakers, Clippers and Rockets.

I was thinking the same thing.
