Part of the turnover problem is on Ime. He’s running linups with KD as the PG while he’s getting doubled in the back court. At least send somebody to set a screen or get the ball instead of letting KD get trapped and throw a heave pass across the court.

Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n | Rockets

64 | a day ago

Insane that this was even somewhat close until the final stretch despite all the TOs. Credit to Spurs defense, but this was definitely also a demonstration of why missing FVV hurts so much.

And people are going to blame Reed’s defense, but it doesn’t help that they got so many OREBs and second chances the whole game because Ime refused to get of the zone so we can box out. Steven Adams was ineffective this game so the zone didn’t even bring much value on the rebounding front. Partly personnel, sure, but Ime stuck with it and it sank them. Reed was our best offensive player and I would have lived with doing man defense and help and scramble.

Doesn’t help near everyone else laid an egg. KD is evidently not a passer. 8 TO is insane.

We got beat at our own game (the possession battle). Only bright side is that Reed had a good offensive game and hopefully he can continue to build on that. With his great hands, I do believe he can develop some strength and experience to improve his defense significantly. Like a FVV who’s worse defensively but better offensively. Even if that’s true, it’s also a question of that timeline aligning though.

KD TO’s reminded me of 2022 playoffs where he avgered 5 a game that sereis. KD for his greatness, never became a great passer, and while his handle is strong for his height, it still can be picked.

Also feel like KD’s age + injuries have hurt his ability to counter physical offball defenses like what the Spurs were throwing at him. 2014 KD doesnt allow that type of offball harassment

dischilibean13 | Rockets

It’s the same for Wemby (and was like that in the first half). Spurs actually made the adjustment at halftime and got him to post to beat the zone

Castle is young i know but what a frustrating player with the turnovers, clearly talented but some of the worst passes/handling just zero awareness while also getting 13 assists

He had a great game until last 2 minutes and then had 3 turnovers back to back. Relaxed a bit too early.

Did the exact same thing against BKN and New Orleans. Literally keeping the opponent in the game with those.

Didn’t care for his threes he was taking. He is a great finisher and is one of the best this year at getting fouled at the rim. Can’t wait for him to have Fox take over as PG

No-Meringue5867 | Spurs

I am okay with him taking 3-4 open threes. Keeps the defense honest. I don’t want him to be scared of them and then be treated like Draymond from 3pt line lol.

With Fox coming back tomorrow, he won’t be the primary ball handler anymore, which should help

The rise of combo guards really just feel like tall shooting guards. Also feel like correlates with teams like the Spurs and Nuggets struggling with entry passes lol. But could be wrong.

OurHorrifyingPlanet | Spurs

I mean those teams struggle with entry passes because the entire defensive plan is to deny the entry pass. That’s what happens when you’ve got a generational big, they’d rather give up anything else other than the entry pass.

He’s gonna benefit a lot when his offensive load gets lifted with Fox back and Dylan as well in hopefully a month. He plays really well off another good guard who can shoulder ball handling responsibilities.

Raven-19x | Spurs

He ain’t got that lead ball handler ability yet. Shouldn’t be when Fox is back tomorrow.

Rockets need a point guard badly. So many stupid unforced turnovers.

*one of the funniest things about nba reddit is people act like a rando fan like me can just call up Stone and be like “I heard so and so can help the team, you should make a trade ASAP.” Lmao

Yeah, HOU is NOT beating a healthy SA, but then again nobody except OKC might. Sorry Rockets fans.

Wemby improves to 3-2 vs KD for his career, he’s beaten him 3x with a very subpar supporting cast. Fox, Harper, Kornet are going to have a huge impact in their return & they can still make a trade if they want.

Not sure about the Spurs choosing House Flipper Grey for their Cup court, but otherwise a fun game.

This is the embodiment of a good TEAM win.

Everyone contributed. Barnes and Champagnie cooked the Rockets from 3. Castle did a great job reading the court and spearheading ball movement.

Wemby made good work of being doubled, smartly passing out and then capitalizing when the Rockets had to spread out.

Good shit, and FUCK THE ROCKETS ALWAYS

The Spurs as a team played so well, I really thought people would be talking about Castle’s performance. The Rockets could not handle him. He made really great plays this game. High IQ.

WoweeZoweeDeluxe | Spurs

Yeah, he needs to clean up some of his turnovers but he’s incredible at getting to the rim. If he can get a consistent outside shot he’ll be really scary

Brodom93 | Spurs

He’s so lowkey and not the biggest dude so he kind of goes under the radar, which is perfect. He’s tough as shit and I love watching him fly for his height lol

Champagnie with a huge game. Big shots and never scared to shoot. As Wendy learns to pass out of the double and the teams swings after he gets doubled he’s gonna be dangerous if he can keep knocking them down.

The state of Texas must be excited to have generational euros on all of their teams.

PS I just woke up from a year long coma.

The San Antonio Spurs (6-2) defeat the Houston Rockets (5-3) behind Stephon Castle’s 14 PTS and 13 AST, 121-110.
