    We'll just have to wait and see if Stotts can put his finger on it.

    Dame has done that numerous times. Make sense when you talk:

    Sorry but you can’t convince me it’s a good play. And it ended up not being a good play. Does that make sense?

    No one's trying to convince you of anything because I've learned not to argue with foolish posts.

    But the bottom line is Dame rolls on him regularly.

    Proof that you don't watch the games. There are numerous highlights (5 to 7 of them) of Dame straight up putting his shoulder in that skinny ass chest and finger rolling all over his ass. Not sure why you don't know this.

    You’re right it was a great idea and should have worked.

    Wait, did you even watch that video? You probably didn't.

    You're using one instance of when it didn't work when there's literally 8 or 9 replays in that video alone. You don't know basketball.

    Learn the game then post.

    Hahahaha. Move on. I don’t agree driving at Gobert is a good idea. That is all. I don’t know basketball, you got it. Jesus.

    It's statements like that that make me wonder about Blazer fans sometimes? The Spurs always compete and are in the discussion at the end. At least for the last 20+ years.

    So when Gobert is in the game we should just never drive ? Just settle for contested 3s ?

    Taking the ball at a big man is good basketball but driving and kicking/dishing vs trying to shoot over him are different. It would not be my preferred best shot with the game on the line.
