SPURS GAME DAY! GAME 54: SPURS VS. HEAT, 3-2-2022, 6PM (CT)

[G R E Y]

Well two things we sorely need to steer in a better direction are rebounding from fundamentals and awareness and hustle as well as putting together strong two-way 4TH Qs, ones that continue not go away from doing the right things that put us in a good position to begin with - good defense, transition play, good-to-great shot creation, time and situation management. Keep up the poise and hustle and right way play for the full 48.

Poor Thad Young. I hope he gets his trade soon. This is a good opportunity for him. Adebayo is going to be a handful.

We are really being careful with Collins. Wasn't he playing decent minutes in Austin? Like 25 minutes a night?
I'm sure there's a good reason. Just please don't get hurt again....

[G R E Y]

Incredible!

1ST Q: SPURS 19

HEAT 21

Well we had that good 10-7 run and gave up a 7-0 run at least of our own. The 3 isn't falling for us and it for them so we have to be more mindful to contest out at the arc.

We're rebounding well and getting to the FT line well, too.

We're somehow in this game within 2 mere points with Keldon (0-4), Thad (0-0), Devin (0-2), Primo (1-4), and Lonnie (0-4) absolutely stinking it up on O.

We can't take it for granted that they are a hot 3s shooting team or that we must make the most of our chances. They have two techs already, one each to their stars, so getting after them is a focus, too.

[G R E Y]

GREEN WINS LMAO!

[G R E Y]

TOs starting to add up in a bad way.

[G R E Y]

ANOTHER FANCY MOVE BY LONNIE, ANOTHER IN AIR PASS FOR A TO, ANOTHER STEAL BY THEM, AND A DUNK.

[imagump1313]

WHAT A GAME!!!!!!!

2ND Q: SPURS 47

HEAT 57

Well it was close until it wasn't. They hit a barrage of 3s, but it turns out they've only made two more than we have at the half. We're in the game despite our abysmal shooting because we keep getting to the FT line.

I like our effort even if we look out of sorts at times with guys who've not played together a lot.

DO NOT like all the mid air passes and changed decisions of shot to oh **** who do I pass to in mid air.

Can someone besides Derrick have a decent shooting game? No other Spur has more than 5 points. Jesus.

We need to get our bigs more involved on O. Thad and Drew have 2FGAs each.

They haveve two starters who have not scored but their bench is outscoring ours 31-10!!!

We're chasing their drive and kicks again with too many players overcommitting to the drivers and we then have too much ground to cover to contest their 3s.

We have 8-4 O boards and it's very close overall 22-21 for them so we're doing well in this department, but need more points from putbacks and TOs.

They've TOd it 9 times at the half and only 7 points off them to their 12 points off our TOs.

We're taking more shots and making 20% less of them.

Get after the 50/50 loose balls, push down court more, PASS SMARTLY, finish better at the rim and from the arc and from everywhere, really, Spurs.

[G R E Y]

Again. There was NO REASON for Keldon to be down low where we already had Thad covering their big. They found Keldon's man wiiiiiide open in the right corner and Keldon runs out but has way too much space to cover for their open 3. FFS FFS FFS. COURT AWARENESS!

[G R E Y]

How does a PG pass to a team mate's **** shins on a drive and kick out to the side?

Pop beside himself at Derrick's amateur hour TO and has to walk back to the bench to not lose it.

[G R E Y]

THAD TO OUT OF A POP TIMEOUT.

YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS **** UP.

[G R E Y]

Good physical man D there by Lonnie to stay with driver and prevent shot despite the foul.
