Game Thread Playoffs Round 2, Game 1: Spurs vs Timberwolves (0-0) (Mon 05/04/2026) [8:30 CDT]

[scott]

Offense completely out of sorts that quarter… rookie Harper carrying. Thankfully defense came to play. Hopefully the jitters are out of us now

 

[The Ballsbreakers]

Keldon has brought nothing impactful in these playoffs

 

[Snake Eyes]

Not a great quarter. Harper was fantastic. It’s time to start playing Spur basketball.

 

[Wemby_Island]

The only way you can win is if you move the fucking ball.

ISO shit wont work on these folks. They are clogging the lane.. Refs are holding the whistle

 

[O_V]

I knew Fox was gonna get tunnel vision on that. Just knew it.

 

[wemvp]

Wouldn’t be surprised if we lose by 20 the way we’re looking. Absolutely disgusting ball

Yep, like clockwork here you go

[DaSlicer]

Harper showing why he's going to be a superstar in the future. He's not afraid of the moment.

 

[ginobilized]

Wemby is forcing things a bit, still needs some go to moves.
Minny is going to be tough 48 mins a game. Spurs look rusty. Hope they shake it off and hold homecourt.

 

[SanAnSpursFan21]

Nobody but Harper really looked good. Wemby started off hot on defense, but that’s about it

 

[Rafa]

Pups just eating up our paint drives man. Their size is ridiculous. One on one isn’t gonna work we gonna have to run plays possession after possession to get easy looks.

This is where Mitch and his staff needs to earn their keep tbh

 

[kjhip1]

layoff and we look rusty. its gonna be ok, incoming run about to come.

 

[Unseen]

Vic looking great on defense and Harper looking good are the only bright spots in that quarter

 

[O_V]

I don't know if I have ever seen somebody mistime a jump as bad as Champ just did .

That was so optimistic. It's like he thought he was going to putback dunk it. He doesn't jump that high.

 

[Mogging]

This series isn’t for Keldon, last series wasn’t either, sucks that Bryant is out

 

[Seventyniner]

Fox once again attacked too early. If he did the end of quarter drill properly Randle wouldn't have had time for that dunk. It's been a problem all season

 

[Snake Eyes]

CB would fit right in against the T-pups. Has the athleticism and length.

 

[Dyoung13]

Why are we not running pick and roll with wemby in the action?

 

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Great great great timing on the CB injury. They are going to punish KJ and HB and we have no other answer at that rotation spot

 

[ginobilized]

KJ will need to pick his spots vs Naz, Randle, Gobert and McDaniels

 

[Weeks]

Pups just eating up our paint drives man. Their size is ridiculous. One on one isn’t gonna work we gonna have to run plays possession after possession to get easy looks.

This is where Mitch and his staff needs to earn their keep tbh

Wolves are a touch matchup for us, they neutralize a lot of this team's strengths

 

[Splits]

looks like another game where Mitch throws the first half for "rotation purposes" and the team will have to regroup in the 2nd half. Pretty meh 1st quarter, not putting a statement on the series

 

[poopbox]

Keldon is practically unplayable right now

Has been all playoffs tbh. Always struggled against size and loses all his bully ball advantages against players like randle, reid, and mcdaniels. Maybe if all 3 are not in the game he can get something going

 

[rascal]

Too many times Spurs just standing around and one player trying to take it into 4 defenders.

 

[Wemby_Island]

Our weekness of not moving the ball and just playing ISO ball, trying to score has been handled well so far.
