Game Thread: Spurs @ Sixers — 1/7/22 - 6:00pm CST

I would've expected Murray to be a little more selfish in the 1st quarter at least to set-up the tempo. I would nof blame him if he chuck shots, franchise players would in those situations, instead it was TO after another trying to find a guy who are not SL regulars. The tempo was just off, off the bat. As the "head of the snake," I would blame Murray andshould own it for not giving his team a better chance to win.

KBD I'm really liking him as starting PF over Keldon. I think him and Vassell would be great help defense for Poeltl. And KBD is a better cover against bigger PF's and can also drain the 3, granted Keldon has been shooting the lights out at 3. Still I don't other teams are respecting his shots. Keldon is just not a better defender at PF and SF than KBD and Vassell.

Primo would be a tenacious sidekick for DJM. Primo taking those charges at that age? Plus he has better reach? If tgey can put DJM, Primo, Vassell, KBD and Poeltl together? I'd play that defense against anybody.

Would be sweet to see at the very least!

I loved last night. It's the way the entire season should have started, or at least developed into.

Granted a few folks are out, but the young guys need lots of run against NBA talent. It's really how you get better. And to make it all the better, they're losing so they should get their highest draft pick in 23 or 24 years. That's a win.

Agreed. If anything this Covid is forcing Pop to play guys who he wouldn’t normally and seeing what they got. As I’ve I’m liking KBD more and more at PF position and I he’s not disappointing. I just want him to play hard defense. grab rebounds and occasionally hit the 3’s, I’d be happy. Primo I know would be great, but I’m rooting for Wieskamp just so Spurs can move on from Brynn or any short, unathletic shooter who’s a defensive liability. Yup last night was pretty disappointing but I’m happy to see our young players play, developing and yes getting closer to a higher pick.
