Not necessarily. It's more like if the refs had a low enough threshold to call a foul during a normal defensive series for the Thunder, they'd be calling them all the time. So rather than OKC committing 60 fouls and the refs only calling 20 of them, the refs are in a situation where they'd have...

I'm just happy for SR21.

The announcers are obsessed with the Spurs getting more free throw attempts as if to imply that the refs are biased toward them. But SA has like four guys on the verge of fouling out. Clearly the refs are calling fouls on them too. The Lakers are just not getting free throws on those fouls.

Vassell didn't make a good pass, but there's no reason for an alley-oop there. Just a regular pass would do, but basically everyone on the Spurs think they're a center and call for a lob

Not to mention the elbow in Kornet's throat to create the space.

I'm not usually one of those guys, but the announcers are so pro-Lakers it's disturbing.

We'll have to hope they shit themselves in this game.

I'm pretty open about my disdain for Antetokounmpo. He'd instantly rise to the top of my most-hated Spurs of all time if they trade for him. So I'm REALLLLY hoping they aren't actually talking with the Bucks. I don't think anything about this year should encourage the Spurs to be trading their...

Chimezie Metu.

He misses playing next to Chris Paul.

You pay a second or two for one of the teams to pick Harrison Ingram.

To me, it's not really about feeling bad about Sochan, though I do think he has a steeper hill to climb than he theoretically should. It's more than whoever replaces him is going to have to hit a sweet spot, and that spot would be much easier to hit if the guards could shoot. It's easier to find...

I don't think PF is a major issue on the team. Some other posters are more worried about that than I am. I just think the Spurs are getting locked out of options because most of their perimeter players are at best streaky-average shooters. The best version of this rotation might have Sochan...

I didn't read some of the posts in this thread, but Castle's shooting is the big swing skill here. If he shoots well enough to be a positive in spacing, Sochan makes a lot of sense as a starting PF. If he can't, then the team is going to have a "hole" at PF because they'll want a good three/good...

I don't think the Spurs should be looking for a PF right now, especially not another swing big. They have Olynyk and Wemby both playing PF/C. It makes sense that if they are going to look for a new starting PF that he's basically a combo-forward like Barnes but younger. What sucks is that teams...
