SPURS GAME DAY! GAME 19: SPURS AT PELICANS, 1-12-2023, 7PM (CT)

A travel SEGABABA versus another star-laden team and without our nascent star is yet another tough challenge. We are playing better, though, and are after a singular goal, to turn our fortunes around. It's in our collective hands to do so.

What if we win tonight by 30 plus?

Maybe Wemby is the problem? 8-)

:lol: a generational 'problem' well worth last season.

Sochan did look great off ball yesterday even as he was a bit better at point. So if we go with last season's starting five, maybe some muscle memory cohesion will kick back in. Here's hoping!

*sigh* when the heck will Dev get back to starting?

I think the idea is to kick start Branham so that he's more productive off the bench, raise the floor with tougher competition. Keldon forced our hand and made the most of injuries to others and once he got to start he has grown even more. He is a solid small PF because of his bulk but that's a load of an assignment.

Branham better keep the play going by keeping the ball moving is all...

EDIT to add:

Ok so I expect Dev to start after this upcoming several day break.

May this lots of shooting on paper translate into on court production!

"Sham-paG-knee" Pels commentator actually pronounced the G. It's silent like champagne or lasagna. See the pronunciation list.

Sochan is a much improved 3s shooter this season. Commentators didn't even bother looking at the assignment sheet for tonight lol

You can both see what we're trying to set up and run and how it's still a couple of steps slow in getting the chemistry right. Deliberate movement to make sure we are doing it right. Slow at first. We should push hard at them in transition where possible. Don't pull up.

Seems like quicker subs so far by Pop. Makes sense given the B2B. Shorter spurts for everyone.

We get a couple of quicker buckets but the first time we get beaten down court with their O player behind our D, Pop timeout. We're too young to be sucking air halfway through the 1ST Q. Effort effort effort.

Cedi great drive to get D off balance and dish down low to Bassey for the dunk. Penetration is primary.

But they're getting anything inside they want. We have to get more physical at them even though they are bigger. We have to play bigger than we are.

Two TOs in a row darn it...

Good job by Zach to follow his shot miss for the O board and foul for FTs.
