The Spurs were honestly impressive for a 5 win team.I missed this game. We won, which is good, but it seems bad to win by only two points against a 5-29 team. was there anything particularly outrageous in the way we played or did they just play well?
Seems like the refs were favoring Wemby with 11 FTAs?

Sell high.You just gotta call it like you see it: ALlen has become a different player w/ space. W/o Mobley next to him. He looks like an all-star.
I don't know what Altman is supposed to do with this information.
No mention of that big fella in the middle? He had a pretty decent game, I reckon.LeVert and Merrill saved our ass. A combined 41 points, 14-for-24 from the floor, and 9-for-14 on 3's. At the end of the first quarter, LeVert hit a 3, then stole the inbounds pass and hit another 3 at the buzzer. That shot was the difference in a 2-point win.
Mitchell was 1-for-10 on 3's or this one would not have been close. He did have 9 assists, however. He's a great point guard.
Merrill had 18 points in 23 minutes and was a +23. On an afternoon where three starters (Okoro, Wade, and Strus) combined to score a paltry 11 points in 75 minutes we needed some help from the bench. Niang was a +27 in 27 minutes.
The Spurs starters were all between +9 and +17; ours were -9 to -21. Their starters kicked our starters butts, but the bench saved the game.
Wemby had a line of 24/10/3 with 5 blocks in just 25 minutes. If he played his average of 29 minutes we probably lose this one.
I prefer to think of this Spurs team not as a 5-30 doormat, but as the team that came within 3 points of taking the Bucks to OT in Milwaukee three days ago.
No.Sell high.
Something about this roster having a legitimate forward sounds better than Allen when Mobley is right.
These stats are meaningless in the grand scheme of things. I'll remind you when the lights become brighter than expected again vs Isaiah Hartenstein.

I've been a Dean Wade believer but today makes it really hard. He looks like he doesn't want to be out there. He looks like the little brother who was allowed to play because they only had nine players but was told to stay out of the way.
Today he was a -21 in just 11 minutes. JBB started him both halves but took him out quickly and he never returned. He didn't score. When he gets the ball in his hands all he wants to do it give it up as quickly as possible. I'd like to see him drive and use his body to muscle his way to the rim, but he's way too timid. He has attempted 14 free throws all season, less than one every two games.
