SPURS GAME DAY! GAME 60: SPURS AT THUNDER, 16-2-2022, 7PM (CT)

We travel for the fifth time for the final game before the All Star break looking to apply film lessons and finish this part of the RRT on a positive. To do that requires a strong start, attention to fundamentals and end of Q details, and adhering to our D-out, good to great shot creation system throughout. Above all, regardless of opponent or score, we must be focused on our game.

This is shameless tanking that the league should not allow or reward - like, not enough picks?! As OP says below, may basketball god Karma reward them justly:

Not sure if I agree with this. We are only 3.5 games better than they are. Giddy is playing great. He would be the first one I would sit if I really wanted to lose. Tre Mann is a beast also. Outside of SGA and Dort, most of the guys they have sitting are on par with us sitting Drew Eubanks (when he was here)and being accused of tanking :lol:

It's 'six of their top 10 scorers' as Bill just said. Top 10 scorers, bless him lmao

Dort and SGA have torched us, though, so I'm just in counter-jinx mode. I don't want us to look past them, taking them lightly as we look forward to the break.

We keep getting caught and stuck on screens which has us chasing the drivers too far behind. Have to anticipate and try to slither over them better.

It's a good thing they don't have a C because they're catching our miscommunications on D for drive after drive and we're just taking advantage of their lack of front court size.

What is up with Richardson? Are we just not going to play the guys we traded for. Has anyone said anything that I missed? Are we waiting to get back to SA?

WTF did Lonnie see driving into their key with four defenders with no other Spur touching the ball? Ok he got the foul, but geez THIS is what I mean about decisions he makes...

1ST Q: SPURS 34 (37?!)

THUNDER 29

So they retroactively can take points away now after the fact?! Interesting.

Didn't like our loose start, ad lack of fighting well over screens. They got too much of what they wanted inside.

Still feels like we're not in full gear.

I want Devin to start driving more rather than shooting from outside and I want Lonnie to try passing the ball more.

Keldon is only 0-1 from 3. We need more from him there.

Better rebounding by us, but we need to bring up our hustle.

I like the strip by Lonnie on D then running the floor and us recognizing him as trailer for his lay in.

He's finishing with better angles at the rim without all the fancy movement and it's working for him. Good job by Lonnie on both ends.

Walker is soo weird...
When he drives left he shoots with his right hand and when he drives right he uses his left hand. Makes no sense.
