NYK zero bench points. 0pts.

Brunson 16pts

M Bridges 8pts
J Hart 6pts
Anunoby 5pts
Towns 2pts - also has 8reb 2stl 1blk

NY were stuck on 13pts for a long time. At the time, only Anunoby and Brunson had scored. Anunoby hasn't scored since then. A three pointer and two FTs around 4-6 minutes into the game. Towns had that crazy fallaway to beat the shot clock. His only basket.

Alvarado 0-4 FGA. Shamet 0-2. McBride 0-1. M Robinson 0-1. Total 0-8 for the bench. M Robinson also 0-2 FTAs. The only FTs the bench got. They played 33 minutes. 0 points.

The fact that they?re only down by five points despite playing so bad is a very ominous sign for the Spurs

Spurs took 21 shots from 3pt. Castle is 0-7. They are such a dumb team sometimes.

It?s the same as the Celtics? Players always think the next shot?s going in. Because overall they were shooting 37% from three, including 42% last game. It is just so happened the first half was 66% and the second half was 28%. But they always think the 66% is what?s gonna happen not the 28%

The wrong guys are taking the 3s, though. Castle and Fox have taken 8 of them. 1-8 on those attempts. It?s just dumb.

I am surprised they don't give Harrison Barnes a few minutes to help them out offensively. Even just to switch minutes with Carter Bryant. Give SAS another shooter out there.

Vassell, Champagnie and Harper are 9-16 from the field. Fox and Castle need to stop jacking 3s.

Mitch Johnson is a moron. Harper has been one of their best players all series and looks the same tonight. Yet he keeps playing Fox heavy minutes and it's costing them. Fox and Keldon Johnson in particular are always part of these big Knicks runs they have made to come back into games

The saying is "live by the 3 or die by the 3".

For the Spurs it feels more like "die with Fox". He's actively keeping NY in it.

(Yes the 3-point shooting + chucking strategy is also letting them down but most of the team is still doing pretty good)

Castle has been much worse than Fox.

I love watching M Robinson attack Wemby on the offensive boards. Find a way to help your team. Find a way to attack the superior player. Make him play against your strengths.

Feels like when the refs want to help San Antonio they find a way to get Towns on the bench in foul trouble.

Oh my, if they upgrade that to a flagrant even if after the game, Wemby is suspended for a potential Game 6  :o

Clearly, the NBA doesn?t want the gentleman sweep

To be honest, neither do I :police:

Brunson has gotten hit badly several times in this series with no calls. At least 2 of them by Wemby.

Fox goes to the bench and 9-0 run with Harper on the court. Glad they figured it out!

I am so sick of the announcers:

(1) Constantly talking about Dylan Harper being a rookie. Mention it 2-3 times in a game and leave at that. Not keep bringing it up every 2-3 minutes throughout the game. Overkill.

(2) Referring to Keldon Johnson as the "heart and soul" of the team. What a load of nonsense. Every game!
