What a torrid pace to start!

"Thanks" for the early missed bunny, Lonnie LMAO just get it out of your system early.

Lots of back and forth. I'd say get some stops but they're a multi-threat O team.

AND we have 11 assists already!

EASY DRIVE ON LONNIE FOR THE LAYUP?

QUICK TIMEOUT FROM BIRTHDAY MAN, POP.

Yes they're quick, but we're also giving up layups way too easily.

HORRIBLE END TO THE TERRIFIC 2ND Q .

Post #11 » by **G R E Y** » Sat Jan 29, 2022 2:42 am

2ND Q: SPURS 63

BULLS 68

The good - we scored 34 points in the 2ND Q and won it.

The bad - we just gave up two 30+ point Qs.

The ugly - we got lulled into over covering one guy - we quarduple teamed DeMar! lmao Jesus... - and they cut back door for a completely uncontested layup to end the 2ND Q.

We are doing a great job scoring but need to get stops by pressuring the ball sooner and for the love of basketball gods STOP ALL THE EASY LAYUPS! Their backup PG is shooting 100% from the field lmao ffs

It's Pop's birthday - so let's play with the defense he so loves, yeah?

We're scoring very well ourselves - everyone except for Derrick and his 0-2... Dude, I love your game but show up, man...

Also, Devin from 3 needs to get going. He's only 3-7 because of three missed shots from beyond the arc...

It also doesn't help that our back court tandem has combined for 0-2 from 3 - this is the one standout negative about them, there's not a reliable 3 shooter between them. There USED to be with Derrick, but we have to put his 3 shot on the side of a milk carton to find it now. Even with that, we're still 7-20 from 3. But the fewer Spurs making them, the easier it will be to zero in defensively on the Spurs who are making them.

We have 18 assists at the half. EIGHTEEN!

If we can zero in on at least one of their three dominant scorers and limit his production, I think we'll stand a beter chance of sneaking in a lead.

Also, enough with the missed bunnies. DUNK THE BALL.

GO SPURS GO!!!

Hmmm... Well well well... we turn up the defense and math the torrid O pace and good things are happening for us...

GREEN CAR AGAIN!!!!!

Post #14 » by **G R E Y** » Sat Jan 29, 2022 3:02 am

Yeah like Sean was saying on that DJ bad pass into Jakob - again - it was too low and easily stripped by the two defenders around our C. SO instead of course pass it HIGH for Jakob where only he can reach it.

Habits and details, DJ!

And we got sloppy on the O end for a couple of possessions and was our hard earned five-point lead trimmed to one on a couple of poor decisions and then a bad switch so that their C got an O board putback on Derrick just now.

Habits and details, Spurs!

Devin, mate, make a 3!

Lonnie, mate, great 3 shooting!

Who the heck smashed Pop in the head?????

Post #17 » by **G R E Y** » Sat Jan 29, 2022 3:15 am

3RD Q: SPURS 98

BULLS 91

The good - another 30+ point Q and on excellent shooting and more stingy D.

The bad - another end of Q giving up of points situation with Derrick taking the risky step up when we didn't have a foul to give.

The ugly - we didn't run back on D on some possessions making Birthday Man IRATE on the sidelines.

Let's not anger him any more, Spurs!

THAT'S HOW YOU PASS IT INSIDE TO JAKOB ON HIS ROLL - HIGH OVER THE TOP WHERE HE LAYS IT IN IN ONE CATCH AND LAYUP MOTION!!!

Post #19 » by **G R E Y** » Sat Jan 29, 2022 3:23 am

NOT A GOOD series of O possessions by us and we are losing momentum.

Get the ball OUT of Lonnie's hands!!!

That was about 6 bad shots in a row. You knew it was coming LOL
