2ND Q: SPURS 59 JAZZ 48

We lost this Q 33-30 but got our composure back after losing it for a spell in the middle of the Q.

We started 7-2 in the Q and worked it up to a 19-point lead before letting up with to many TOs, wasted O possessions and not getting back in transition for a single digit too close lead. I think it was down to 6 or 7 at one point.

We got our head into it with better ball movement, better spacing, and better balance of scoring in transition, in half court, in the paint, and from the arc.

We made 6-10 from 3 and are shooting 50%FGs.

We do have 15TOs already. FIFTEEN. These have cost us 17 points, and we are -6 in the category.

Still our pushing the pace and working the boards for second chances gave us 5 more FGAs.

Pop is running a tight nine-man unit. All but Tre have scored. Tre is only 0-1 but leads starters with 4 assists; Blake only has 1 point but leads bench with 4 assists.

We have 21 assists already which is great.

Devin leads us with 15, Sochan and Julian each have 10, Wemby 8. Really everyone but Wemby is scoring efficiently. Is playing a little bit unfocused.

PROTECT THE BALL. SHARE THE BALL. CONTEST THE BALL. SCORE THE BALL.

[G R E Y]

Wemby and Sochan give and go for a Sochan layup off glass.

Devin steal, drive, dunk.

[G R E Y]

Julian D board to Sochan to Devin 3.

But we gave up a wide open 3 just that they missed. Have to be careful about that.

We follow up with a 4 on 1 break and basket.

We push ahead quickly AGAIN and Sochan gets fouled. Earning it. Well done.

[G R E Y]

Wow Tre got shoved in the back by their PF. No foul.

[G R E Y]

We once again get it to Wemby down low in a not ideal way and he can't finish.

They push in transition for a dunk.

Pop timeout.

[G R E Y]

Wemby has to get the habit of keeping the ball up high as he spins into the paint.

He's getting stripped too much with the ball in defender swipe vicinity.

[G R E Y]

Sochan steals, passes to Wemby, behind the back pass to Julian FINALLY DUNKS!

[G R E Y]

Yeah Wemby looks flat out tired and fighting through fatigue.

Just picked up his 4th foul damn...

[imagump1313]

I always wanted us to trade for Markanen..

[G R E Y]

DEVIN THUNDEROUS T-H-U-N-D-E-R-O-U-S DUNK!

[G R E Y]

You know we ALMOST had him when we did the S&T for DD? That was the initial deal but Bulls FO backed off and we ended up with the other package.

[G R E Y]

[G R E Y]

Where would a game be without a Collins O foul?

[G R E Y]

**** hell. That was Collins's 5th **** foul.
