I think his body acts faster than his mind is what it is
he's too scared of finishing. He has to try to take it to the rim and once the defender commits he can dish the pass or go up

This is probably what their version of "working on fast breaks" looks like, tbh. Shortened season, no training camp, pandemic in the middle, not a lot of opportunities for that sort of thing. We're seeing growing pains from a young team, it's normal and good and hopefully they won't be making these mistakes next time.
Having said that, is there any statistics on the amount of lobs/alley-oops every team has during games? The Spurs feel IMO like they should be 30th in the league by a wide margin. I've watched nearly every game this season, and haven't seen a true 'oop yet I think. Insane, especially considering how many young players are on the team. I can imagine Pop shaking his head and screaming at players when it does happen in practice
that's by design. Spurs try to shut down the high % shooters and if they give up shots it has to be a low % shooter. Since that guy is left wide open most of the times, he will hit most of his shots.
At least he doesn't annoyingly clap his hands like some g league bum who somehow found himself in the NBA and turned it into one of the biggest con jobs in sports history.
yea we don't do a lot of oops, unless it's the Aldridge curls to the rim and White throws him the lob play. We used to run that for nephew a lot too. They should run that for Lonnie every now and thenThis is probably what their version of "working on fast breaks" looks like, tbh.

Why bring up Westbrook?
Selection bias.
Smack! With the pimp hand!
One thing I miss about Fathead is that he'd always throw the oop on the fastbreakThis is probably what their version of "working on fast breaks" looks like, tbh.

I know someone said it already, but these t wolves jerseys are ugly AF
Yeah, underrated aspects of lobs is that it's just as hard to throw them, as it can be to finish them. It's a two-part thing. Hopefully once White comes back, he can start throwing some oops to our youngings - Lonnie, Keldon, even DeMar can all finish off with a dunk easily.
Trade Poetl for Reid
Lonnie gotta finish those
LOL, I wonder if Forbes is getting any minutes now.Why bring up Westbrook?
Towns is insanely talented. Too bad he's not a leader.
Say what you want, but this team is at least fun to watch
There we go, Lonnie
Yep bout 15
That’s a good looking confident three by Lonnie. That’s going to be his biggest problem in his career, confidence.
That is EXACTLY the kinds of shots Lonnie should be taking, and making. Guy can be MPJ-lite on offense, his jumpshot is damn near unguardable if he's confident about getting it off.
D'lo looks like Stephen Fry's servant from the Hobbit movies.
That would be the fewest since his rookie season.
Towns elbowed LMA in the face and a foul on LMA
