SPURS GAME DAY! GAME 5: SPURS AT SUNS, 2-11-2023, 9PM (CT)

We return to the scene of our moxie-filled impressive come from behind W with good vibe momentum but surely a target on our backs. A road trip that requires no travel helps, film and rest help, but nothing will help us more than implementing all the lessons into even better play more consistently. Let's show it!

WHERE: Footprint Center, Phoenix, AZ

WHEN: Thursday, November 2, 2023, 9pm (CT)

GO SPURS GO!!!

If we play like we did the other night we are going to lose by 30.

Hopefully we learned some things about taking care of the ball and shot selection and have a little confidence boost.

They are going to be pissed and come out aggressively (which goes without saying)

Great Dev left corner 3.

Solid D to O transition, quick outlet pass to Dev for a layup.

Don't like Keldon on Booker, late over screens, chasing him, BUT when he's on Book he's physical.

We whiffed on a couple of transition layups, missing Wemby on occasion. He seems to be used as a decoy early in games and is fine with it.

GREAT D TO O!!!

Keldon up to Sochan cross court to an already there Wemby for my favourite kind of transition bucket, one where the ball doesn't even touch the floor.

Now it's Keldon to Sochan switch on D to guard Booker. Grinder.

Sochan on KD on the other hand, goes about as well as almost everyone else on him.

Still, Sochan with a P&R between him and Zach for an open J, then a back pass off a screen to Devin for 3 (he positioned himself for several options) then a transition layup. Look who's getting a handle on things early...

Nice find for the cross court pass out to KJ for the missed 3.

Nice post up before on the left block by Sochan on Booker - good body, footwork, just missed the touch front rimming it.

Right idea but bounce pass too low from KJ to Zach on the P&R for a TO.

1ST Q: SPURS 39 SUNS 20

:o

gump must have bet on the Suns hahaha!

Not much to complain about - stifling switchy D, greedy physical rebounding 13-7, 3-0 on O), highly efficient scoring (60%FG, over 61% from 3), ball sharing (12 assists). Only 1-1FT but they're letting us inside uncontested.

We have to now learn how to stay fierce and hungry with a big lead.

^ Further to that, I LOVE the quick outlet and extra pass to Devin, I love how Devin was already in full sprint getting the pass, and how he streamed into the key between two defenders hugging the ball to his body to protect it before springing up for another layup. TEXT BOOK.

We steal, we push, we pass back to a trailing Wemby for a LONG dunk.
