San Antonio Spurs 2024-25 - Alien: Resurrection

Castle is great. He'll get better at those free throws. We really need Sochan back ASAP. I know there's probably still like 5 weeks until that happens, but we really miss his defense. 

Someone other than Wemby and Castle need to get going. We have a shot, but we need stops on the defensive end and some more shots to fall.

Also, fuck the Lakers. There are way too many Lakers fans in the building tonight.

Wemby has been bad on D tonight. Needs to wake up.

That was better. 

[ztejas 43383]

Sweet drive and kick to a covered Zach Collins in the corner, KJ. 

[Kermit 3137]

Keldon shitting down his leg in that sequence.

[Braff Zacklin 13481]

Still ruing the fact that our Spurs passed on Dalton Knecht. He's going to be a solid player for a long time.

[Kermit 3137]

Castle is so fucking good. So incredibly good. 

[ztejas 43383]

"LeBron has to get going he only has 11 points"

That's wild because y'all had his balls in your mouth the entire first half talking about his stupid triple double streak that no one gives a fuck about. 

[ztejas 43383]

HUGE play from Castle and he hits both.

[ztejas 43383]

That's a laughable offensive foul call. What the fuck ever.

Re-dick

[Kermit 3137]

LeRefs.

[ztejas 43383]

Wemby got outplayed tonight. Hope he learns something from it. 

Decent effort tonight but we could have won this one. Oh well. 

Thought the crowd was embarrassingly bad but the Lakers unfortunately have that effect at times.

Poop

[hornfan785 554]

Damn. My undefeated streak has been broken. Still a pretty good game overall to go to. Castle is so good. I think if we had Sochan available for this game, we would have won. Oh well. GSG!

[Mitch Cumsteen 18526]

That foul on Paul was terrible. But they made a lot of mistakes regardless that cost them the game. Lots of teachable moments.

Overall though, they are playing winning basketball. I don’t know where the record ends up, but they are on the right track. 

And I’ve been saying it since before the Spurs even picked him, but Castle was the best player in the draft. He’s such a winner. 

[gofuckyourself 8164]

It's both Wemby and just the NBA, but 13 threes and no free throw attempts from a center is something.

Yeah, watching that dude play at Uconn, he just seemed like one of those naturals. If I had the #1 pick in last years draft  I would have traded down and taken Castle. Or said fuck it and taken him #1 if I couldnt work a trade where I felt confident I could scoop him up a few picks later.

He's still too skinny but at the same time he needs to be careful with his frame. I think he needs another 20 pounds and some more conditioning/grown man strength. AD was so much more assertive tonight. 

[Kermit 3137]

I’m so sick and tired of watching Keldon play basketball. He’s a one-trick pony, and that trick does not help the team.

[hornfan785 554]

I gave up watching tonight's game after that abysmal 3rd quarter. Castle looked good tonight. And nice to see Tre Jones back on the court. Oh, and Bassey had some good plays in the first half. But yeah, everything else was shit. Oh well.

[Mitch Cumsteen 18526]

Not much you can do without three of your best players and especially on a tough back to back. Next to zero chance of winning that game before it even tipped.

I didn’t watch any of last night but he actually seems to be finishing better overall. When he gets into the paint I’m legitimately thinking something good may actually happen vs oh shit here we go again.

Not last night. Dallas baited him into repeatedly driving into the paint, and because he can’t do anything else, it resulted in a contested or blocked stupid shot. Since he left his rainbow shot in Oz this season, he has no redeeming basketball qualities left other than “me force my way to hoop, me shoot, me hope it goes in while yelling.” I remember him as having some defensive qualities, but those memories have faded with time.
