Game is slipping away. No Dinwiddie and no Beal on the court. WTF is this lineup. Check that he's in. :noway:

Dinwiddie just seems slow. Even in games he plays well, it's mostly because he is hitting stepback 3's or the pullup from midrange. He is not going to the rim AT ALL.

Two years ago in his last healthy season, he shot 31% of his shots from the rim and averaged 10.6 FTA's per 100 possessions. This year, he is shooting 11% of his attempts at the rim and averaging just 4.7 FTA's/100 possessions.

I sincerely hope that it's just an issue with confidence in his knee and that it'll get better as the season goes on.

Derrick White would put up 80 on Neto. Come on WUJ? Are you serious? Put Deni on him. Or not. Just let him put 100 points.

He's hurt or something. He was getting to the basket in preseason and early in the season. He probably doesn't trust the knee and the weaker leg.

Bertans has made 1 of his last 19 3PA's since coming back from injury. I don't even want to see him right now.

Beal taking over. It would be nice if San Antonio would miss one floater.

What will it take to get Kispert on the floor? Does Bertans have to go 1-for-50?

FFS every floater they throw up goes in. Thank goodness Beal is playing smart this quarter, this would have been one of our signature disaster quarters. Not a great one, but we are weathering thus far.

If he was playing for Pops again, guessing he wouldn't be playing at all. Lucky he's playing for a very patient coach willing to wait until he explodes or until Rui comes back.

Just started watching so this comment is out of sequence but in the
1st half of the 1stQ Poetl is setting illegal picks on basically every possession,
either throwing his hip out or dragging the screen along the edge of the paint.
Our guards better start running into him when he does this.
A lot of what we call 'thought' is just mental activity

This is unreal? What is the record for most floaters by a team in a game? I know they had something like 83 on the season?

Yeah I noticed those illegal screens all game too. I just accepted it at this point, refs just rarely call it.

I've never seen a team hit so many floaters! It's actually a difficult shot and a defense is doing okay if that's what they're giving up. If you look at almost any player, their shooting percentage from 3-10 feet is typically in the 30's or low 40's.

I can't believe Bertans is in the game, missing terrible shots, committing stupid fouls. WUJ.
