GT: Spurs vs. Celtics 

Post#1 » by Nolan » Sat Oct 31, 2015 4:38 pm

When: 3:30 PM ET, November 1, 2015
Where: TD Garden, Boston, MA

This should be a win for us but these afternoon games are always interesting and Celtics are a tough well rounded team so we'll see how this goes.

Go Spurs!!

Great game for Aldridge going by the numbers. Is he starting to fit and gain confidence in the Spurs offence?

Slowly. We're running a lot of familiar iso sets for him but I think it's going to take a while for him to adjust to not getting the ball every possession. He has been doing an amazing job on the offensive glass and working the high low with TD.

Kinda a ugly game but overall it was a solid gritty win. LMA and Kawhi carried us down the stretch and Manu and the bench mob were excellent all night. Also Duncan and Parker were great tonight, the boxscore doesn't show it but they made a lot of big/smart plays.

Also i've got ton of respect for the Celtics. It's hard not to like a team that plays that hard for 48 minutes.
