GT: Spurs vs. Wizards

[Nolan]

When: 5:00 PM MT Nov 26th 2016
Where: Verizon Center, Washington D.C.

Second night of a back to back for both teams it's going to rough but we can't use it as an excuse.

The Wizards have been not so great this year. Their bench has been a major weakness for them and if our bench performs like it did today we should win this game.

Go Spurs!!

Someone needs to tell Kawhi to stop settling for so many threes. It's going to ruin his career.

Last few games' attempts - 9, 7, 1, 7, 7 and already 6 in the 3rd quarter here.

It's just taking away his real strength (and also bringing his foul shots down).

And I just realised that Aldridge after tonight (by the looks of it) will drop to under 7 rebounds per game, which (other than his rookie year) is by far a career low. That's not good enough in my opinion.

I don't think Kawhi is settling for 3s. He is averaging 5 3p attempts per game, which is fine for a good 3p shooter like him. He is pretty much getting what defenses give to him.
Last season, during the same spam, he was averaging 4 3p attempts per game.

I actually think he is diversifying his shots pretty well this season and going to the line way more.

As for Aldridge, yeah his rebounding numbers are a bit disappointing for sure. I also think that he played much better D last season.
