Scott's Notes:
  • Keldon man, you're the best
  • Thought we finally saw the wheel start to turn for De'Aaron and Steph in the second half. Hopefully it's a true turning of momentum, because their slumps have been rough. Still gave them both 2s even though their second halves were 3-4s for me
  • Two days off before the next game... are we done with this Wemby nonsense yet? On the positive side, he's been great in his limited time
  • Good on Sochan. He should definitely get those CB minutes to see what he can do until Devin's back
  • Dylan has definitely hit a rookie wall, but it happens. He'll be fine
  • Champ's rebounding has been a godsend this year, and I love this floater game he's come up with out of nowhere the last few games!
  • Barnes was still rough, but I do got to give him props, he was making some good passes and delivering some dimes last night, specifically in the first half
What You Said:
  • @mazerrackham - man our shooting's been rough, but hey Jeremy was 2-2!
  • @Area 51.247 - Getting up for the big dogs and not bringing appropriate attention for the runts is this season's constant refrain, because they all have teeth. Reflection for the day: Spurs have a new Mr. 100%. Jeremy Sochan, come on down!
  • @Mugen - We need to hang a banner when Carter Bryant finally converts a dunk
  • @Guru of Nothing - Aren't coaches supposed to fix problems?
  • @NotoriousHOP - Wemby - Can anyone else BESIDES this man grab a rebound? His rebounding and rim protection were impeccable.
  • @PhantomDashCam - Tough Shooting night, up and down play, a Consistent KJ performance. Glad to get the Dub. On to the Reservoir Dogs of Mr. White and Mr. Brown.
  • @heyheymymy - Mr. San Antonio Keldon Johnson saved our asses. Great to see Sochan knock down some threes.
  • @LeBowen - Another bad game against another G-league roster. We're at the point where shooting coaches need to fear for their jobs. Keldon carried, Jeremy making as many 3s as the rest of the team combined says enough.
Editor's note: If you provided more great thoughts, I apologize if I didn't include them. I just take your first line of comments. My suggestion is to just submit one continuous line or paragraph, because that is typically all I include for ease of curation of the grades.

We're shipping off to Boston next. This will be a tough back to back this weekend, so long as we get a split I'll be happy.
 
I am the Castle Hater here but I would have given him a 4 here. This is the game I am expecting of him. Less than 10 shots on efficient shooting. Not turning the ball over too much.

Great to see Sochan contributing and always staying ready.

Carter Bryant with another blown dunk. Good he is sent to the G-League.
 
Yep. It's a team game. Everybody contributes, whether it's a win or loss. Even if it's just keeping the spirits up during the long, tiring grinds on the road, as in the "Coffee Gang" of Manu and Patty or the "Towel Waving" of other years or being ready to tweak Luka's nips and twist JJJ up in knots after being benched for a month. My opinion. Go, Spurs, Go!🗽
 
We're obviusly not perfect and still have problems work out...but just getting back to league average from 3 covers up so many of our issues right now tbh.

Why was CBs dunk waved off. I thought he finally made one, but noooooo!
 
Alright fine you’ve convinced me, I’ll start leaving my name along with a one line sassy comment on my grades
Rafa do you know if we can edit our grades? Ain't no huge deal, but wondering.
 
Gotta be the ugliest 16-point win in Spurs history :st-lol:.

Still we move on. We are not the only team going through some ups & downs right now..Every top team in the league seems to be in a '6-4 in last 10' type of swoon
