the throwback sixers court and jerseys were sick

I don't think he's ready to start...... Which is all the more reason to give him a start now.

Where the hell did "trial by fire" coaching go to, tbh? You used to see a kid with that level of fire - throw him for a round or two with the big boys, make his day. See what he's made of in the process.

He's shown enough to give Barnes a designated breather

Absolutely. This is what I wanted, just throw him into the fire so to speak and see what happens. If they don't want to start him in the 1st and 3rd quarter, fine, start him in the second and 4th quarter (I'll settle for that). In any case, he should be getting more minutes. It's criminal the lack of minutes Dylan gets even when he plays well. I don't care if they're rookies. Give both more minutes. If the vets can't hang, that's on them. Dylan for sure should be getting more minutes. Being a rookie shouldn't matter if you're playing that well.

He starts giving us some seriously productive minutes and we go to another level

Exactly why I wanted to give him a chance. The potential is for the Spurs to go to another level, and that's what I've been saying.

Hope he's alright. That was a nasty fall (though I don't think CB was making a dirty play by any means).

No dirty play there at all. He was going for the block. I didn't watch the game live, so that's why I'm replying to some of the posts after the fact.

Always hated him. One of those Jeremy sochan type of scrubs. Hated him even more when he refused to be part of this team.

I had no time for him after he didn’t want to report here after a trade during the rebuild. Fuck that clown.

I thought the Spurs didn't want him? So he refused to report to the team? Oh well, too bad for him. He could have been in the J-Mac role if he built some goodwill with the team .

Dude was recovering from a meniscus repair. Looked like the ROTY before he went down. No idea wtf morey was thinking. Seems like a great locker room guy too

I've seen Steph chatting it up with him after games too, so it seems they're on friendly terms. Same as you guys, I really don't get why Morey traded him, and also, why he traded him to the Thunder of all teams he could have traded him to, why send him to OKC. What a stupid decision yet again from Darryl Morey.

Wemby just said “i think we’re the best team in the world”

Great that he said that, but, they've never played in the playoffs to know what the pressure and intensity is going to be like. I hope they're not overconfident and are ready for that.

Victor with the self awareness about dribbling into traffic

What did he say? Did he acknowledge that he shouldn't be doing it? If so, that's encouraging to hear he's trying to not do it.

Spurs have the kind of depth that their 5th and 6th best players can carry on some nights

At the time, you think it'd be great to go back and watch that, but the resolution and video quality is likely going to make it unwatchable these days .
