The Spurs start 4 guys 6'6 or under and a center who doesn't score much. Go smaller!

Horford has been bad today aside from a few seals inside

Is Tatum in the protocols? Why is he not playing? JB could have used some help tonight.

JB looks to have a more better arsenal offensively than Tatum. He can mix it quite well. Inside outside. He also got a good mid range, and can get to the basket better than Tatum.

Ime gives me so much ammo.. The Spurs "lead the league in asts" (meaning the move the ball around) they are all shooter/passers with one big, Yet we play 2 bigs most/all the game. No defense.. end result, poor defense.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

He’s been bad in a lot of games. Too much minutes for his old body i guess. Also he’s been camping outside way too much.

San Antonio has made a bunch of shots tonight where their guy is taller than the Celtic guarding him and they get their shot off.
