SPURS GAME DAY! GAME 64: SPURS AT WARRIORS, 9-3-2024, 7:30PM (CT)

[G R E Y]

Sochan drives again. Fouled again. Putting in the work. Makes 1-2. Well done.

[G R E Y]

Blake did a GREAT job running over the screen to catch up to the shooter to contest the miss well.

Blake drives and kicks out to Julian for an open 3.

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

[G R E Y]

We're up 18.

We trade baskets.

Sochan drives and does one of those annoying falls with arms and legs flailing, still down while everyone runs down and so we're down 5 on 4 on D. We give up a 3.

But then another drive and kick out for another Julian 3.

[G R E Y]

lmao Keldon got over the screen but had no idea what to do even though Collins already was with his man. Keldon, honey, go to the guy with the ball.

[imagump1313]

At least Pop got in Branham's ass for being stupid on that last possession.

[G R E Y]

Our final play of the half is a Branham left corner TO in which he gets stripped by a smaller CP3 because he ONCE AGAIN held onto the ball too long rather than looking to pass. This is the thing these TOs indicate - HE IS NOT LOOKING TO PASS, HE IS LOOKING TO DO SOMETHING WITH THE BALL HIMSELF.

Pop was right in his face about that **** up. It was a bad choice. He's jsut lucky we're up by a lot. But he has a team high 3TOs and they're all of the same variety that cost us the game last game! **** tunnel vision. ****.

End of Q details is a focus and mindset issue, not a oh we're up so let me go do something myself time.

2ND Q: SPURS 62 WARRIORS 43

We won this Q 30-16 on the strength of terrific movement on O and some solid D overall.

We're led by Sochan's 16 on 5-8, 2-2 from 3, 4-6FTs, 4 boards, 1 assist, 1 block. Doing a bit of everything on both ends most of the time. Love the physical drives, creating space, finishing off glass. Got caught at times guarding no one at our basket, so little details need focus. Didn't like that flailing fall with arms and legs out all over the place while we got down 5 on 4 in transition. This happens just about every game. Would love it if he stopped this. Once he got scoring well he drove for fouls so just some tweaking of finishing well at the rim will reap even better rewards.

Every one else in the starters except for Tre has scored just as everyone else but Blake from the bench has scored. Check that. Mamu has not either but both are making good impact. Blake with speed, drives, and kick outs for open shots, Mamu with rebounding, screening, and passing.

Branham has the same type of TO in all three times he did it.

It's about doing right things in all situations rather than taking plays off because we're up big. Shocked he keeps **** up like this.

Protect the ball. Get it in our heads like we're starting 0-0. Focus on fundamentals. Play smart, physical basketball on both ends.

[G R E Y]

We have Tre, Branham, Julian, Dom, Collins in.

Branham basket to start us off.

And then we TO it.

We're getting out-physicaled to start here so we have to absorb it, withstand it, and give it back.

[G R E Y]

D miscommunication. We give up a wide open layup with Branham and Collins backs to the driver lmao

[G R E Y]

Dom great O board hustle.

[G R E Y]

Julian travel. Wide open. Oh **** OOOOOOOOOOOOOF.

[G R E Y]

Dom soft touch after the spin. 2. 10 points. Terrific. Fundamentally sound. Now more confident and assertive.

[G R E Y]

Pop yelling at us allowing the wide open 3 by their best shooter.

Tre crafty drive.

We get the Julian block.

Quick Tre transition push.

Branham quick smooth 3.

Dom fights for the D board.

We push ahead in transition to Julian left corner 3.

Excellent two-way play. At our rim. On the boards. In transition. Extra passes. On drives. On 3s.

[G R E Y]

Dom terrific man D gets the block.

Blake terrific transition drive for 2.

[G R E Y]

Blake another quick drive, gets fouled, makes both. Well done.

[G R E Y]

Blake fouls a 3 shot. Damn.

[G R E Y]

We are no longer shooting white hot from everywhere.

Good thing we're running back on D and getting some stops while we get our shots going again.

[G R E Y]

WHY ARE WE NOT DRIVING WITH PHYSICALITY AT THEM? LIKE THEY ARE AT US AND GETTING BACK IN THE GAME?

STOP SETTLING FOR 3S, SPURS!!!

[G R E Y]

Keldon J off inbound in their end.

We steal.

Graham 3.

Good response.

[G R E Y]

I don't understand how that's a foul.
