Spurs (14-21) at Celtics (18-19) Game #38 1/5/22

Pop destroyed Ime. C’s had all the talent going for them in 4 out of 5 positions but Pop picked this team apart. Kudos to Murray too for playing well down the stretch.

For all the complaining I see here on Smart’s shots, to be fair to the guy, he saved this team midway thru the 4th when he finally checked in because the Spurs were dissecting the Cs defense with PnR after PnR. Smart snuffed those out and stopped the bleeding.

Also, and I’ve said this a bunch before, Brown needs to be stopped using as a playmaker. The coaching staff needs to focus him on scoring and developing his off ball movement (rather than his on-ball playmaking).

I don't agree at all. The players bad habits crept back in in the 4th, everyone started trying to win the game by themselves, and it killed them. This is an immature group of players -- plain and simple.

Exactly.

With a “players” coach who won’t or can’t hold the accountable.

Sad Ime!

Haha of course they find a way to cover for the refs’ missed goaltending call in the last two minute report.

Claiming that the guy’s arm “grazed” the rim is asinine - it completely hit it full force while running down JB. And the close up of the video clearly showed the rim moving as a result. Just covering up incompetence!

Totally asinine. I thought you aren't allowed to touch the rim at all if a shot's going up, regardless of whether the rim moves.

Completely agree…but…..it should NEVER have come down to that.

You're absolutely right.
