I wonder how hard the Spurs are going to play. They've been tanking successfully over the last couple of weeks minus the W against the Kings. That said, they are too far from rising to #4 so a W doesn't hurt them much however they still has a chance to get into a bottom #2 in the standings (I think)

Didn't they got into OT or double OT in their last game? They can try hard since they are young without a lot of talent.

Plus they are firmly in the bottom 3, all of which have the same 14% chance at the #1 pick.

I guess if they somehow finish worse than Houston, they would have the 2nd worst record so if no one jumped to 1 or 2 behind them, they'd at least get one of the top 2 players. That being said, there are 3 elite players in this class. Victor is obviously #1, but Scoot and Miller probably about even and different teams would probably have them in different orders.

I doubt we lose though given the disparity in talent.

Yeah great point. I forgot how close the odds were for the bottom 3. Seems like they don't have much motivation to tank then if they are already in the bottom 3. They went to 1OT but that was a couple of days ago and they are young so they could certainly come out with plenty of energy.

We should win, especially with KD on the team but trap games still haunt me

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Al McCoy's old school play-by-play commentary is so much better.

No fake overenthousiastic fake reactions, no home team bias, no overhyping of rotation players... Just sticking to reporting the game.

Great tanking effort for SA tbh
