Goddamn,I knew Kidd was full of sh*t when he said Lively would start..Luka-Kyrie-DJJ-Grant-Kleber the starting lineup...seriously,Maxi?? Spurs with size(Collins,Wemby) ,Mavs with small ball lineup and we saw how that went for the Warriors when they weren't hitting threes :banghead: :banghead:

Embarassing start, team looks like they have no clue what to do on either end...
Defense wins draft lotteries!

Already a bad start. How Kidd somehow thought this lineup would work against SA is beyond me. Makes no sense.

We need more ball movement and cutting. Too stagnant. You already have one foul on Victor, we need to draw that second foul ASAP!

A weird starting lineup...DJJ,Grant and Maxi can't do nothing with the ball and none of them is a rim protector...Maxi's D is very overrated

Well Kidd is still Kidd and the Spurs are back to being strongly dislikeable after years of simply not existing.

THJ looking good. He’ll be Heat checking the rest of the night.

Thankfully THJ is flaming hot right now or we'd be down big. Raise that trade value THJ. Keep it going.

Spurs with Wemby,Johnson,Vassel and Sochan have a Young and promising starting lineup...then they also have guys like Branham,Jones and Wesley off the bench..mix that with Pop being the coach and a capable FO(who's gonna make some moves) and they are gonna be contenders in 3 years

Surprising to only be down 6. Feels like Spurs are winning my more.

If Wemby didn't have 2 fouls and if THJ wasn't going bonkers, we'd probably be down 20+. But yeah consider how many other things went wrong, we're still in decent condition.

Looking so much better with Lively in the lineup, this team needs length badly at all times

On a positive note so far, Lively and Luka already look good together.

I think things balance out a bit in the second half. Spurs had so many open looks it was insane. Lively has to play all game for us to have a chance. He’s the only reason the paint got closed up a little.

Yeah, Lively's looking good so far,he only needs to get more rebounds on D but it's hard cause he's helping a lot on D...dissapointed with Maxi,his D really fell of a Cliff,Green needs to be more confident(he looks scared) and Grant needs to use his strenght under the basket(I know he's undersized but Play bully ball)

Maxi sleepwalking on defense there... generally defensive coordination is uhm well let's call it not pretty
