I'm not sure if Marcus Smart is still playing great defense because I haven't watched but I have noticed him taking 10 ..3 point attempts and only making 1...

And unless I read it wrong the Detroit Pistons have just won 9 games in a row??
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

I think this and exactly this.


Wrong thread but I'll put it here ..

Boston sends Derek white and Anthony Simons to SAS and SAS sends D Fox and Kornet to Boston..

Who says No?

That's why I said the Spurs need Hauser.

Spurs were leading by 10 points with 7 minutes left.

When the Warriors clamped down on Wemby and focused on guarding the paint, the Spurs didn't have a threat from 3pt land.

Both Castle and Fox are great players, but they're not shooters.

That leaves Vassell as the only real shooter for the Spurs.

Instead of putting in Harrison Barnes or Sochan or Champagnie, a guy like Hauser would create more openings for drives to the basket and allows Wemby to have more space to operate.

Haven't watched any GS games but is Al as washed as the stats look? 0 pts in 24 minutes last night, shooting 33%/31%/0% [no FTs] in less than 22 minutes on the year

Jrue having a great year, same with Kornett. KP there are rumors of him being traded mid-season

Fox is more overrated than Trae Young. I said in the off-season the Spurs were going to regret signing Fox to that extension. Spurs are stuck now. Very dumb move.

Al's last season of being an effective player was in 2024.

Last season the decline was obvious.

Brad made the right choice in not overpaying Al this season.
