Steph had a really rough game and I think maybe the battle with Deni took him out of his game a little bit… but at the same time, it also took Deni out of his game. We’re so much deeper than them, that’s a good trade.

POR fans might be asking if Deni is a playoff dropper, but I think it was just a matter of going up against a much better team.
I think that Steph was tired of getting hacked (hard) repeatedly…. Very few whistles going his way, while Deni ran into and sometimes even through defenders…and got call after call after call.
 
I'd trade for Avdija for his whistle if nothing else. That said, kid is good tbh. Might not be #1 option on a contender good, but definitely a strong 2nd option. They have plenty of draft capital going forward with some nice young(ish) pieces so they could swing a trade for a star when someone inevitably becomes available.
Deni wouldn’t get the same whistles if he played for SA
 
Who is this FOX guy?

Is this the Fraudster Fox I keep reading about?
Is this the Fox guy i keep reading that this board wants traded away asap?
Is this the overpaid bust i keep reading about on this forum?
I thought this was a spurs fans forum and was starting to hate that FOX guy - i kept looking at all nba teams trying to find out who he played for- is this FOX FRAUDSTER a spur?

(*asking for a spurs fan friend*)
 
Do we have any estimates/sense of when R2 would start depending on Minny/Denver going to 6 or 7? Or is it just up in the air atm?

Earliest would be Saturday, May 2nd if Minnesota wins tomorrow night. Or Monday May 4th if that series goes 7 games.

Kind of hoping for a 7-game series above favoring a matchup against either team. A six-day layoff will be nice for our guys to heal and get refreshed, and we can talk about practice.
