Can't blame Pop for these dudes being re ed against a press tbh
Spurs almost had 4 players with 20 points

Probably had a fit when he heard Demar was playing
That’s my main take away from tonight. Hope he’s not on the trading block.
Bucks haven't played since Wednesday. Seems like a guaranteed loss tomorrow.

I’m hoping Pop is saving Walker IV for tomorrow’s back to back, but I doubt it. I would rather Mills or Lyles be traded than Walker IV
My god, the Cavs scored 25 points in the last 4:30 of the game, and 18 in the last 2 minutes alone. Disgusting. I'll take the W of course, but damn they tried to choke that one away.

If Poop is smart, that's what he's doing.
Cavs almost pulled what Spurs did the other night with their press defense. Pop needs to run inbound plays with these group
I can for wasting two timeouts for a "teaching moment".
Well, a win is a win, right...? Last year's Spurs would've lost this game for sure, this team has so much more pulse, even when they're trying to choke . It's insane how solid a closer Dejounte has become as well, I had zero doubts that he was sinking those FTs at the end. He's special...

I was always told that full court presses rarely worked against NBA players as they were too experienced and would break it down with ease.
Well, it gives Pop something to work on in the film session.
all part of the learning process
He got kinda beat up the other day they probably just dealing with some soft tissue issues I expect him back next game.
There's that AWESOME 4th quarter performance I've been talking about, bro, lol.
I mean, it wasn't a terrible performance - they managed to hold the fort and draw out the win, without letting the Cavs ever go up, and on the face of the best defensive effort the Cavs had put the entire game. Yeah, they can do better and should practice more playing against presses and zones, but it wasn't nearly as bad as some of the meltdowns they had last season, and that's a step forward imo. Consistently beating the bottom feeding teams is a big mark of a good team, so let's hope they can keep it up.
I'm much more worried about tomorrow's game. Giannis will destroy us, and will be even worse if Luka continues not to get playing time...
Not a wild mustang anymore, fellas
Kinda sounds like a downgrade
I’m Going to have read some Nat Geo. to get my animal comparison game on point.
Agreed. The amount of peeps piling it on the Spurs during the Philly game...Tomorrow, on Bryn Forbes appreciation night - I can see a starters pulled 3 minutes in type of game
