Why put wemby on the plane to MEM but not play him? Spare the travel unless you are certain

 

[LeBowen]

About 4 games in a row with Fox bricking FTs though. Something seems off there.

Career 75% FT shooter. The biggest weakness in his game.

 

[FiestaSpurs]

Apparently only Champ and Kornet can dunk. Lol

 

[Strategic]

Olynyk make a baseline move then fumble the ball.

 

[poopbox]

Is that Jeremy Sochan in Kelly's body

Lebowen pointed out that hes a career 75 percent ft shooter

 

[kjhip1]

lucky to only be down by 4

That pass was a bit strong by Champ

 

[Bill Brasky]

Time after time fucking up in transition

 

[Raven_]

atrocious basketball, thankfully portland went ice cold on wide open shots

 

[100%Duncan]

I mean, missed fts, missed dunks. Not really

 

[scott]

Advija seems to really struggle on FTs against us, specifically.

 

[LeBowen]

We really need to stop attempting those passes into the crowd under the basket. Especially if it's not one of the point guards doing it.

CIAMitch, tbh.

I’ll take 75% right now. In the last 5 games he’s at 63%

 

[LeBowen]

But 80% for the season, it has to average out somehow.

Good defense helping the Spurs come back from a bad first quarter and a poor shooting night so far. Thanks to the forwards in this game as the guards have been poor. Keldon and Julian carrying the Spurs. Here's hoping that the guards up their game in the next half.

Splitter has finetuned the Blazers wings to defend well and play with a lot of energy. They have really deterred the Spurs guards. A bit more patience and some luck on outside shooting and I think the Spurs will scrape through with a win.

Last thing I'll say about Ms. Body and then I'll let her do her thing. But it's so hilarious how on ST when we rightfully said Branham wasn't good in his minutes and then Body would tell us to kill ourselves and that we are actively rooting for players to fail.

Yet here on Baseline, he does that shit with Fox and most of the time it's uncalled for. Such a hypocrite. And I know his only response will be "buh buh max contract."

Anyway I won't flood the game thread with more of this nonsense and just focus on the game. Let's go Spurs.

Just a reminder: Let’s make sure we keep our disagreement to basketball and not personal attacks please (which I believe everyone has so far).

Got you. Also hate seeing a clear agenda when a player they don't like is struggling.

 

[Dex]

Hopefully they start the second half like they give a fuck

TBH, I appreciate people making their biases known. Helps make it easy to decide which opinions you value and which you don’t.

For example, all my praise of Devin this season should be highly valued because I definitely wanted that dude gone

 

[Strategic]

At least finally I feel like Spurs are gonna win this game. That’s probably a bad sign.
