Facts. These boys showed heart! The lakers better quit playing around and give us what we want because yesterdays price is not todays price

Not sure whether the Lakers will give us what we want but they might just give NO VW.

The Wolves had a total of 0 offensive rebounds. Bill said that has only happened twice in NBA history.

That is an insane stat regardless but especially against a team with Gobert on it. Great job by the squad boxing out I guess but the 65% FG also helps.

Sochan is really going to be good in a year or two.

Sochans tenacity on D was wonderful. If this is what we got with this kid, I love it!

I thought Langford actually cared tonight and was very steady on both sides of the ball and gave a pretty damn good effort on defense.

Langford definitely gives effort but I thought he looked out of control and afraid to shoot. Which really was Pop putting him in as a PG to replace Jones initially. I’m not sure what his position is but running point was rough.

Pelinka is going to need to go to Jeannie Buss and get her to write a check to help buy out Russ's contract so Holt Cat can pocket some coin this season.

Same. I've been looking for the Spurs to get back to defense for 5+ years. It's freaking awesome and I'm loving it. It really reminds me of the 1996/1997 team in a way. They lost a lot of games, but IMO I recall them playing hard on defense (maybe someone that watched all the games can comment on their defense that season). This current team is probably a lot better offensively, though.

Getting excited over defense. Boring

While Mathurin and Sharpe go on to become superstars and the Spurs missing out on them by a few games by a couple of tanking teams.
