Welcome to the Sport Thread. Veterans of the Sport Thread know the way we do issues round right here, however for all you newbies we’ve a number of guidelines. Our neighborhood pointers apply and principally say be cool, no private assaults, don’t troll and don’t swear an excessive amount of.
The Spurs evened up their document on Friday evening with a resilient efficiency the place they overcame their ending points from the primary recreation to safe an exhilarating time beyond regulation victory over the Houston Rockets.
Tonight, Victor Wembanyama performs his first street recreation for the Silver and Black, and we are going to see how properly the younger Frenchman will deal with a hostile area. The Clippers have a gifted squad, however the incapability of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George to stay wholesome for a whole season has stored them from contending within the expertise laden west.
It’s going to be attention-grabbing to see how Devin Vassell fares in opposition to Leonard, who’s probably the most gifted defender he has confronted to date this 12 months. Zach Collins ought to have a greater outing tonight in opposition to Ivaca Zubac, who’s a a lot simpler matchup for him the Houston’s rugged middle, Alperen Sengun.
I believed the Spurs offense was going to be a piece in progress for a lot of the season, however you possibly can already see an enchancment between the primary and second recreation, though it’s laborious to inform how a lot of that enchancment was because of the competitors. Tonight, we’ll discover out if the Spurs can maintain getting higher, or in the event that they regress a bit. My recommendation to Pop is to get the ball to Wembanyama, and let him create. That at all times appears to work out.
Sport Prediction:
After Victor Wembanyama blocks Kawhi Leonard’s shot 3 times, Leonard will go to the locker room with a mysterious damage and never return.
One last phrase:
Go Spurs GOOOOOO!!
