How does fox compare to Tony Parker? I mean obviously Parker is better, but how wide is the gap?

Better defender but that’s it imo. Parker always used his speed and that spin/tear drop diet was too good. I remember Kobe saying all you need is two main moves

very wide

 

[Hyrup]

DEVO was huge in that quarter.

Absolutely, on both ends

 

[DAF86]

Truthfully, I wouldn’t be depressed over a loss today as long as there was effort and reason to believe. Glad they’ve given us that, the 1st half was pure junk

That being said, GET EM FELLAS!!!

Fuck that. Win this game.

 

[The Ballsbreakers]

Kornet needs to shoot when they leave him on an island, miss it or not, he has to keep the D honest.

These DHOs have an effect on the ball handler like they're trapped in a spell to not shoot. Remember CB the other night?

 

[kjhip1]

portland is terrified of leaving wemby, they are leaving wide open lanes to basket. ball movement is 100% better this quarter. need a lead to get up to 5-7 points and they will implode

 

[scott]

Fox is so much better when he's attacking and not settling for 3's. He's playing his best game of the series today. Lead us home DA!

For real… take out those two corner 3 bricks and that would have been an almost flawless quarter from him. I hate to coach that out of him, because he has also hit some big ones… but he needs to remove it from the bag when 14+ seconds on the shot clock

 

[Wemby_Island]

What a game for Wemby.

His shot is not falling and he didn’t take a shot entire 2nd half and setting up nice plays entire 2nd half for teammates.


Maaaan what the fuck I have watched

 

[ace3g]

Spurs just assume you are going to get hacked on defensive rebounds, we've secured then lost 4-5 defensive rebounds...

railing you in, as requested.

 

[Foodie2]

Wemby looked more himself mentally.

 

[SpursFan86]

Wemby at 26 minutes. I don’t want to see him finish with less than 36 minutes tbh. Need him down the stretch here.

 

[Mal]

Decent. Would have been great had he cut down on the usual "I'ma just fling this contested three instead of driving and scoring/kicking".

I am a hater of his contract, not necessary the player, but he was visible during this quater in good way overall.

 

[kjhip1]

team is scary when they are communicating of defense amd flying around. pace picks up and portland panics

 

[KDKSpurs24]

Castle should have taken that open 3 man

 

[Biggems]

I have often wondered if baskets are different. SA struggled in the 1st half. They switched end and Portland struggled in 3rd.

 

[wemvp]

Mitch pushed the right buttons at half and they were helped by the Blazers defense going to shit along with their shooting. In the first quarter they defended well even when shooting poorly. They let it get to them the 3rd quarter. That Barnes dunk was slow coming off the pnr and no one stepped up to stop the ball.

 

[ace3g]

Did Bryant make some early mistakes? Barnes getting minutes.

 

[The Ballsbreakers]

Scoot is the Spurs sleeper agent.

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Come on Steph we need you.

 

[ace3g]

AREA 51 X2!!!

 

[SpursFan86]

Area fucking 51

 

[ace3g]

Get your hands up early on Holiday the rest of the game.

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Come on Steph you gotta make something out there.

 

[KDKSpurs24]

Fox has been competing his ass off trying to guard Deni even though he’s much smaller
