I'm not sure what our total record was for the actual entire calendar year of 2023 but I'm sure it was horrific.

For sanity's sake I am willing to forget everything if we can be somewhat mildly competitive in 2024? Please?

Branham kept his hands out at his sides and kept driver outside the middle, leading him to Wemby. Good.

Early Dom minutes. Good step up for help D.

Sochan is too slow on perimeter first steps, even by non-guards.

I do like the movement and the constant coming off screen curls, but on that attempt before Devin's, we had one curl and pass too many. Take the shot you have.

Dear Tre - please stop taking open 3s. There's a reason you're being given these. Step in and take your floaters.

1ST Q: SPURS 23 GRIZZLIES 20

Some good things like alley oops to Wemby early and by different players. Some extra passing and off ball movement is better, too.

Some slower perimeter coverage on first steps, so positioning could be better. But we've been trying to keep the drives out of the middle and leading to rim protectors.

Boxing out has to be better.
