Game Thread Spurs (19-7) vs Hawks (15-13) (Fri 12/19/25) [6:30PM CDT]

[Strategic]

Spurs missed some easy chances but not unhappy with the quarter.

 

[poopbox]

If we just went to the rim we'd be up 20.

Spurs killers Naw and Kennard going to get them back in this game.

Thank the basketball gods that Atlanta took Risacher. That was a tricky draft to read. Castle would have to go #1 in a re-draft

We are lucky that Castle was unable to shoot lol. Would have gone #1 if he has decent 3p% in college

 

[BatManu20]

Sloppy last 90 seconds but still finish the quarter on a 9-0 run. Good stuff. Keep attacking and moving the ball. When the ball gets stagnant is when we struggle against their length. And feed Wemby near the rim every time he's in the game.

 

[ginobilized]

Atlanta's announcer is getting everyone's names wrong, even the Hawks. Funny stuff

 

[Paramore]

Keldon seems tired

I actually think it would be 50-50 amongst the 30 teams between Castle and Sarr as of right now.

But the fact the Spurs got a top 2 player in the draft is a win regardless.

How exactly did Risacher sell the narrative that he should be anywhere near top5, let alone the #1 pick is beyond me.

He checked a lot of checkboxes for what are you looking in a prospect- length, athletism, family roots. To some degree can run, can shoot, can play defense, all at 18 yrs old.

High floor, unknown ceiling. Noone was really pushing to be top pick that draft.

True, but generally i like them. I tend to give the opposing team's announcing team one quarter to get a sense of who has a good crew.

 

[Mugen]

Seems like the typical bullshit losses we’ve had tbh

 

[BatManu20]

Spurs really putting pressure on the rim in transition and it's working. Keep pushing the ball.

 

[ffadicted]

Ok this is it. I can feel it. This will be the game where we get up big early and NEVER let up.

I can sense it, no jynx pls

 

[BatManu20]

Harper is a fucking DAWG

 

[Correct Crusader]

That foul is bullshit man

 

[Correct Crusader]

I love camera angles from the other fucking side of the court so I can't see fuck all!

 

[STAT88]

NAW has definitely learned some bullshit flopping cheap foul calling from SGA.

 

[Strategic]

I’m liking how sucky the Hawks are looking

 

[spursparker9]

Where is ice trae? I thought he is back?

 

[SpursFan86]

Harper is so fucking good. This is insane

 

[spursparker9]

Harper having a great game

 

[LeBowen]

The thing I'm worried the most about is Wemby keeping his block streak.

 

[spursparker9]

Harper the best Spurs rookie in their rookie season after Robinson, Timmy and Vic.

 

[BatManu20]

Keep. Feeding. Wemby.

 

[Mal]

Hawks are trash, the swap looks good

 

[timtonymanu]

Hopefully this isn’t some Turd quarter/fart quarter kind of game.
