I can't get too upset about this loss. The Spurs are really good, and there won't be many nights where both Kevins play as shitty as they did tonight. Pek keeps getting better and the bench is showing signs of life. Let's see what we can do with Sac-town, Toronto, and back-to-back with Utah.
Re: Spurs/Wolves GDT- Can we PLEASE break the pattern
Agree that pek is the only guy that show up tonight. Love, martin and brew suck tonight on both ends. Rubio tried but unless he can improved his offense and make himself a threat out there, his game is too dependent on his teammates and they didnt show up tonight.
The bench had a good run in the first half but barea played iso ball and a 2man game with dante early in the 4th and shved and bud barely touched the ball to get into any rythem. We lost the game right there.

well, yeah who saw us winning today frankly? However time is ticking and we are already close to mid season, so some win streak is needed to come very soon, otherwise season might be gone

I am more encouraged by this loss than upset. If Love is his normal self, it very well could have been a win. The bench is finally playing respectably and if it continues, this team will finally have a chance to pull themselves into the playoffs bracket.

It's a similar story to many of our other losses. We absolutely got killed on the eFG% differential. We took 19 more shots and 4 more free throws, yet still got blown out. Think about that for a moment.

So we have a defensive problem? Team seem to be able to execute against us fairly easily in losses.

I counted at least five SHOULD-BE assists last night from Rubio and that was just on the NBA Gametime highlights. Three layups to Love that he blew, one wide open mid-range jumper to K-Mart and a missed fastbreak layup by Corey. Could have, should have easily had 12-13 assists.

If we don't pop off a five or six game win streak soon, we're not even gonna be in contention for the 8th seed.

We're good at causing turnovers, protecting the defensive glass, and not fouling. But if a team executes, yeah, we're not good at all right now.
