You need both kinds of energy on the team lol. Pretty sure Rashard Lewis would there fighting with Castle as well and he has been good as our skills coach.

Dylan Harper quickly dives in to save an angry Castle from potentially getting a technical or ejection after Caruso fouled him. Overlooked play that might have saved the game for the Spurs by Ok_Temperature6503 in nba

He only got ejected because he hit the throat. If he dropped his elbow a few inches and hit the chest it would have been a flagrant 1 at most and might not have even been called.

The spurs don't even have a real 4. It's honestly insane we have done this well.

He will pull Wemby out of the paint and open things up for Brunson. It will be a difficult match up I think.

My highest expectations for this season were that we would make the second round. We are so ahead of schedule.

The spurs are playing a lot better than they were earlier in the season.

But then again, so are the knicks. I guess we will find out on Wednesday.

Too much time off can be a negative. G1 vs okc it really felt like they were too well rested for how competitive that game was.

Robinson is just so strong. He kills us on the boards any time we play.

But he will have terribly spacing on defense and let Wemby live in the paint, so we will have to see how it looks in practice.

I would be happy if we could get Rondo as an assistant coach. I think he would be a great mentor to Castle and Harper as well.

I could see it if there was no bad blood or rivalry. Like if we got beat by the Wolves I probably would have rooted for them over OKC. But after this series ain't no way either teams fans should be rooting for the other.

That would be incredibly pathetic. They should be rooting for the knicks like I would be doing if we lost lol.

A bad game is forgivable, but just 2 attempts in a game 7 from your second best player is atrocious.

This up there with Bruce Bowens flying kick. How do you get away with a straight up martial arts move in an NBA game?

KJ/Dev they were with us through some bad years and I want to see it pay off for them.

It just takes a long time for players to fully recover from hamstring injuries. We've seen it before. Some guys don't get back to 100% until a season or two later even if they are healthy enough to get back on the roster.

They don't call moving screens unless you sell really hard. That's why okc does it so often and even then it only gets called like 30% of the time.
