On an off shooting night, Juju was big. We had no business winning that game.

At some point, we may need to concede that a bad shooting night for most teams is just a slightly below average night for the Spurs.

Hopefully getting Devin back will help.

Now 2 games up on everyone else for the 2nd seed.

1 game back from Detroit for 2nd best record in the NBA.

Hope we can move Olynyk to land a guy like Hauser, Royce ONeale or ideally Isaiah Stewart, but I don't think the Spurs are going to make any moves, especially with Sochan playing better. We just need like one more shooter. Devin coming back will help for sure and I think he might be back tomorrow.

And Mitch showed some trust in Sochan by putting him in for the last possession of the 1st half and Sochan rewarded him with perfect defense.

This is when you know you have a god team. They find ways to win games they have no business winning.

Left Jaylen Brown crying about fouls.

Spurs have made their defense without committing shooting fouls their calling card. We saw it especially against OKC when SGA went in looking for contact and Steph and Harper would lay off and he didn't get the foul or the push that he expected.

We don't get the forced turnovers that a team like OKC does with their "they can't call them all" method of hacking the **** out of wrists all game.

But we are 1st in the NBA FTs allowed per FGA. We are second in the NBA in total FTA by opponents - we have given up 10 more FTA than Houston, but Houston has played 3 fewer games this year.

Despite getting bodied by Nurkic, Mitchell Robinson, and some other bigs, Spurs are 1st in the NBA in fewest offensive rebounds given up and 1st in defensive rebound percentage.

We are surprisingly one of just 6 teams committing 14 or fewer turnovers per game. Five of those six are the top 6 teams in the league: OKC, SAN, NYK, Denver, and Boston. The other team is Toronto, who is pretty good. Detroit has extremely high turnovers.

Biggest shortcoming is the 3pt shooting. We've dropped to 22nd and we had previously been top ten.

I can't find the stats now but I know that the Spurs have the highest FT differential in the league this year and the Celtics have on we of the lowest.
Celtics have shot fewer FTs than any team in the league for sure. They just start whining when they lose.

Yeah, Celtics are averaging 18.9 FTA/game. Next lowest is Milwaukee at 20.7. They are last by a wide margin. Average is 24.2.

Spurs are 7th at 26FTA/game and 2nd best after Charlotte's no defense team at 21.3FTA/game on defense.

Sad no Devin.

Last game of the road trip is OKC. Maybe back for that. He's traveling with the team

This might be one of Victor's best games this season. An absolute monster on both ends.

wtf was Mitch thinking? How do you have Fox standing in the corner while Wemby tried to win it?

Idiotic.

They need to figure out what offense works best with Wemby on the court. It gets very stagnant right now.

Im almost okay with losses like this. They made a lot of bone headed mistakes and they need to see what can happen. Its crazy because they played really well down the stretch in Boston last night.
