Considering how poorly we shot this was… Actually one of the more fun games of the year and definitely the most encouraging performance during the losing streak. There have been other close games but a lot of the other ones only felt close because of unsustainable hot shooting versus actual good basketball.

But I thought they were real moments where the Spurs did exactly that in this game. Played good two-way basketball. Moving the ball, not turning it over, not making unforced errors, and a playingn Hard-nosed intense defense

It wasn’t perfect, obviously considering they still lost, and that third quarter had some really ugly moments where they reverted back to not properly rotating on perimeter shooters, but there is really a lot to like tonight

I thought Victor had his past performance since that Phoenix Suns game. His playmaking was definitely the best of his career tonight and it’s a tragedy It happened during such a cold shooting performance or he would have flirted with a triple double. He picked out so many open shooters and cutters at the rim. He was wonderful. For people curious how Victor would perform in a more minimal, slightly more traditional, role like Chet has with Oklahoma City. This was probably the best glimpse of that.

He played off of ball handlers, didn’t try to do too much, and was just very solid on both ends

Jeremy had a roller coaster game again but his play in that fourth quarter was tremendous and he was a huge reason why we got back into that game. When he’s aggressive He has a tendency to make mistakes in his new lead ball handler role, but the team I still think is better off with him being willing to attack the paint and use his size mismatch quick, early, and off and versus floating around on the perimeter where he doesn’t really add much offensively and him being 6’9 doesn’t really matter

Devin and Johnson both had moments where they were the worst players on the floor for the Spurs not named Malachi, and both had some really good individual moments too

I won’t live on too long about the rest of the Spurs, but I thought it was a good defensive evening that just lacked shot making.

And more positive news, the Charlotte felons won again, Maybe against all odds they going to win streak and make the playoffs.

This team has serious problems that no one wants to talk about. People want to use players like doug McDermott as a scapegoat, but atlests he does stuff. Barnham played 20 minutes and didn’t hit a shot. Pop is cooked. The majority of players on this team are garbage. The lineups are absolutely terrible. You give criticism to Pop sochan or wembanyama, and the majority of Spurs fans have a 2 year old tantrum like you wouldn’t believe.

Today’s wish list:

1. Wemby 15 points with at least 8 in the paint or FTs - check

2. Sochan 4 assists - check

3. At least 10 minutes of a Wemby-Tre shared lineup - ???

4. Vassel to grow a new groin - has an anaconda in there or something

5. A dub :( - keep on playing that physical on defense then these will come sooner than later

Really hope more of our losses look like this going forward. I loved the effort from our guys. Clippers are a good team, and we made it a close game despite an abysmal first half from the field. Double digit scoring from all of our starters. Victor’s shot selection was so much better this game, Vassell is getting better at finding victor, and sochan was doing a really good job scoring in the 4th. A lot to like

Pop being a real class act in post game interview…sike. dude needs accountability

We would have won this if we made open easy looks in the 1st and didn’t start the game shooting 1 for 16. Loved the aggression and zeal from Sochan in the 4th tonight, it was the first time all season I’ve really seen him look motivated out there. Well fought game overall. We play hard for a couple more minutes each night - tonight we had a good 38 minutes of high effort ball. Maybe if we can stretch that to 40 on Friday we might finally get a dub.

Much better game, just started flat on shooting. Big gains. Wemby had a very good game too. Hopefully we end this losing streak against warriors on Friday

Played really well tonight. They didn’t get the dub tonight, but I really like the aggressiveness they showed. If they keep playing like this, they’re definitely gonna turning the tide

4 Straight Home Ls is tuff, but stretches like this are just going to make it that much sweeter when we are back on top.

Go Spurs Go

The San Antonio crowd showed out tonight.

Great game Spurs despite the L great D unfortunately bad O the first half but this is definitely a moral victory thank you we needed this and great game Wemby

Glad to see the guys are improving. It’s happening slowly but it’s happening.

We lost when we had no collins, wemby, or bassey in the paint and let them get a 12 point lead for no reason.

16 missed open opportunities to hit Wemby for lobs or on the low block.

Way better effort. I’m happy. The Clippers are aggressive and punch you in the mouth, we stood up to it, played with effort, clawed back from deficits twice.

Wemby played much better, high energy, rolled aggressively and wasn’t wasteful with the ball. Jeremy had a good game. If folks could have hit an open jumper, this would be a win.

I’m also very curious if we stick with Barlow as the third big. I really think Barlow is pretty good, and plays with high energy.

We lost, but at least this kind of loss makes me more optimistic about the future. Wemby being more aggressive inside was good to see too.
