Holding them to 31% shooting. Can't complain about that.

Hopefully we can maintain the lead this time.

2ND Q: SPURS 54 RAPTORS 35

Can't say it was the cleanest on O - so so many missed bunnies, mostly by Sochan, which have greatly contributed to his 2-7. Three steals and good D though.

But Wemby and Keldon have really stepped up, as hae Doug and Cedi. The former have combined for 24 (12 each) and the latter have combined for 13 from the bench.

Zach is having another quietly good game, but he's getting outmuscled by his C counterpart, so a little more controlled verve would be good to see.

THEY'RE SHOWING WEMBY GETTING DRAFTED NOW - CHILLS EVERY TIME I SEE IT! I FEEL SO HAPPY! "What's up, coach?"

Julian made a couple of steals, but holy moly has he lost confidence in his shot.

Tre is uncharacteristically off, 0-3, but leads us with 4 assists.

LOVE our D to O push in transition. We're running really well, and with good fundamentals either out at the wings or down the middle and we're finding the leakers and cutters and trailers well.

I do really like that we put up our points with only 14 3s attempted (6 made so far) but we have to be careful about giving up freebies on their kick outs. Rotate, contest.

We have 12TOs but have only given up 5 points to getting 20 points off of their 12TOs so great transition work to reward ourselves for the good D.

We must be careful about an injured animal fighting to stay alive now. We must come out strong, we must try to get to the FT line more (only 2-3FTs in the entire first half), and keep up the focus and energy.

Keldon mismatch on their C down low on their first play wasn't ideal. Wemby got stuck without space to help.

And again they're feeding their C down low. Too easy.

Impressed with how Branham is playing within himself and within the team concept so far tonight.

Good Pop timeout. We're allowing points too easily by their C down low. Mismatched, giving up space and positioning, not enough help D.

Forced moving off arc after the Wemby block, then we collapsed well to contest, then we pushed well to find Zach down low. Very good D to O.

Rare Wemby miss. Used the left hand, but glass angle was off. Good patience and proper bounce pass - angle, height, timing by Branham.

Branham. Nice. Really simple patient work off screens to create space and take his preferred shots.

REALLY nice and patient Keldon basket. Good handles, finding of space, getting a rare outside the paint J. Seeing the floor and creating his chances very well.

Tre's getting torched by bigger PGs. And most PGs are bigger.

Then again, Tre's finishing at the rim while absorbing contact is better.

Nice 5-0 run with the Cedi 3.

(But we did give up a wide open 3 and got lucky with their miss. Have to clean that up).

Nice, we needed that 3 from Cedi. Raps were gradually eroding away at our lead.

I don't really understand why we had Tre on their inbounder who is a C. But we got the charge so no harm done.

GREAT O board by Bassey!

Wasted by too much finesse between Doug and Cedi that gets picked off for a 3-point play given up the other way.

We MUST reward ourselves for good hustle and make sure we don't leak cheap points. Hard clean fouls.
