Game Thread Spurs (38-16) vs Suns (32-23) (Thu 02/19/26) [7:30 PM CST]

[Ice009]

I watched Pistons game before ours and oooo Man they are real real legit.

I haven't watched them all season. I really didn't think they were legit. How do they play? I mean, just looking at how their season has gone and is going, it's looking like they might be more legit than OKC with the way they've been playing. Not sure if the Pistons have had many injuries to key players this season, though?

Cade is a really good all around PG, not a liability on defense. Tobias Harris is a good utility piece, they have shooters like Duncan Robinson, we should’ve drafted Jalen Duren, Stewart enforcer.

Still it’s the leastern conference I think we take them in the finals

They have two non-shooters in their starting lineup, which just can't work against Wemby.
They're 28th in 3pt attempts and 21st in percentage.
Most of our issues this season happened against teams that can get hot and run us off the floor.
Pistons can't.

That double big lineup really wasn't working.

I don’t really understand the reasoning for Harper’s sporadic minutes. He got a short stint in the first quarter then sat for like 12 minutes of game time. Random 1 minute pulling him off the floor only to reinsert him a few plays later. He also should not be playing in clear cut garbage time but with DJG and Lindy out there isn’t much choice. Maybe signing a guy who is injured to a 10 day wasn’t enough.

problem with double big is neither wemby nor kornet defend well on the perimeter. now if we are playing a team that has some absolute non-shooter like Amen and can have Wemby roam off of him, it can work. have korndog guard the center and wemby plays free safety.

Fox + Vassell + Double Big is a perimeter defense disaster
