00:27:44Coach I feel like Barnes just he had
00:27:46to go get the ball.
00:27:48He didn't want to go in there.
00:27:50That's right. He was just bouncing
00:27:52slowly. I guess I go.
00:27:54But then he missed both free throws
00:27:56Barnes struggling a little bit today.
00:27:58He's been on a good roll.
00:28:00But today missing threes and missing
00:28:02free throws.
00:28:04Foul on the floor is called on
00:28:06Dylan Harper.
00:28:08Our officials tonight crew chief is Sean
00:28:10Wright in his 21st year alongside
00:28:12Brian Forte and Jason Goldenberg.
00:28:14And we didn't get a chance to talk in
00:28:16the open about what's at stake here
00:28:18tonight. Cash.
00:28:20Talk about it. Cash.
00:28:22Okay. Guys on each of these teams
00:28:24have already earned a little over a
00:28:25hundred grand.
00:28:26They can double that tonight.
00:28:28Now there's a lot of people in this
00:28:30city right there who are going to
00:28:31try to double their money tonight
00:28:33and lose it all.
00:28:34The guys here have a legitimate
00:28:36shot of doubling their money
00:28:37tonight.
00:28:38Uh oh.
00:28:39When Benyama showed off the
00:28:41reach and then had it stolen away
00:28:43by AJ Mitchell.
00:28:45Wallace for three.
00:28:47No. Rebound Barnes.
00:28:49There's definitely some mortgages on
00:28:50the line out here in Vegas tonight.
00:28:51That's for sure.
00:28:54Three point shooting not great by
00:28:56either team here early in this game.
00:28:58When Benyama goes down gives it up
00:29:00Champini three ball corner pocket.
00:29:03They're gonna need to make some of
00:29:04those.
00:29:05And they're right back in this thing
00:29:08with when Benyama on the floor.
00:29:10Four point game.
00:29:12Tide slowly but surely starting to turn.
00:29:15When Benyama making an impact.
00:29:17Setting up Champini for three.
00:29:19It's a nine two San Antonio run.
00:29:23They can look at the current odds.
00:29:28Spurs.
00:29:29Thunder.
00:29:31We've got a good one here early.
00:29:34Victor with Benyama.
00:29:35That was a very short stint.
00:29:38The plus seven and around three minutes

00:30:10Субтитры делал DimaTorzok
00:30:41Working on Holmgren
00:30:42Got to the rack and finished
00:30:43But it's an offensive foul
00:30:45The offhand caught the grill of Chet Holmgren
00:30:49That was a great drive
00:30:56I have a problem with those
00:31:01I guess they have to call
00:31:03Now they're going to look and see if it's a flagrant
00:31:05You got to be kidding me
00:31:06That's a normal basketball play Dwayne
00:31:08When you spin like that
00:31:10He didn't extend his arm
00:31:14He just spun and shot the layup
00:31:17And now we're going to look and see if it's a flag
00:31:19I guess they have to look
00:31:20Because he got hit in the face
00:31:23He didn't extend it
00:31:23He kept it
00:31:24He kept it right here
00:31:25He kept it tight
00:31:26Close to his body
00:31:27He did
00:31:28I mean it's hard
00:31:29What are you supposed to do with your arm
00:31:31When you spin?
00:31:32Get your face out of there
00:31:33Is what you got to tell him
00:31:34That's exactly right
00:31:35Look at Chet
00:31:37He's trying to shake it off
00:31:38That hurt
00:31:39You know when people always ask me
00:31:44They say do you miss playing?
00:31:46You see that hit he just took
00:31:47You don't miss
00:31:47I don't miss that
00:31:48Did you see the last game
00:31:50Every time Jaden Snuggs hit the ground
00:31:52I don't miss
00:31:53No I don't miss playing
00:31:55Absolutely
00:31:57And you were missed to get down seven times
00:32:03Yeah buddy
00:32:04Seven times get up eight
00:32:05It gets harder to get up
00:32:08As you get a little older though
00:32:09I get down seven now
00:32:10I'm crawling
00:32:11I'm crawling out of here
00:32:13I think this should just be
00:32:16They'll keep it in offense
00:32:17I think it will too
00:32:18This will not be elevated to a flagrant
00:32:21Here's Sean Wright
00:32:22He's actually not done looking at it
00:32:39So we're going to have an extended replay here
00:32:41He's going to get a little help from our prime video truck
00:32:45So that Sean Wright can see this replay
00:32:48It wasn't a foul
00:32:49And that's San Antonio's argument for sure
00:32:53This is just a basketball player
00:32:55Yeah
00:32:56I think this is just a normal play
00:32:58I don't think it's an offensive foul
00:32:59And it certainly is not a flagrant
00:33:02I mean if you can't do that
00:33:07Then you can't spin and shoot a layoff
00:33:09Yeah
00:33:10I don't know how you're going to spin
00:33:11I mean I know people do the one
00:33:13The right right now
00:33:14But
00:33:14Not on Chet Holmgren
00:33:16You're not going to
00:33:17The ball will end up in the stands
00:33:21Here's the call
00:33:23There's no wind up
00:33:27But impact on this play
00:33:28The play will remain an offensive foul
00:33:30Not impressed
00:33:34It took him a long time
00:33:36To come up with that one
00:33:37And I'm with Dwayne
00:33:39I don't even think it was an offensive foul
00:33:41As a result
00:33:43It's the
00:33:43Eighth turnover for San Antonio
00:33:45Miss Johnson taking it well
00:33:4737-29 is our score
00:33:497-27 to go
00:33:51Second quarter action
00:33:52Michael Brady, Stan Van Gundy
00:33:54Dwayne Wade, Cassidy Hubbard
00:33:55And OKC trying to get back
00:33:58To the Emirates NBA Cup Championship game
00:34:00They lost a season ago
00:34:02To the Bucks
00:34:03Castle
00:34:08Caruso right there with him
00:34:10Not a lot of spacing there
00:34:16And a bad pass
00:34:17Leading the lead against Deals
00:34:19Case and Wallace
00:34:19Coast to coast
00:34:21Oh, he got a little celebration
00:34:23Right here with his hands
00:34:24Y'all see that
00:34:25I watch you
00:34:27I clean you
00:34:28Ten-point advantage
00:34:31Harper
00:34:32Rims out
00:34:34Mitchell the rebound
00:34:35He called his hands
00:34:39Little Giant
00:34:39Hardenstein
00:34:42From the elbow
00:34:43High
00:34:44Arking shot
00:34:45He's incredible
00:34:46He's incredible with that shot
00:34:46He makes that shot look easy
00:34:49That is a very difficult shot
00:34:51Even for a guard like you
00:34:53Let alone a 7-footer
00:34:54Incredible
00:34:5512-point lead
00:34:56Emirates
00:34:58Well, this is why
00:34:59Case and Wallace
00:35:00Leads the lead
00:35:01With 2.3
00:35:02Steals the game
00:35:03He's starting to flex as well
00:35:04He's everywhere
00:35:05And Bigfella
00:35:06Always known for his rebounds
00:35:07But
00:35:07Showed off the touch
00:35:09A little bit right there
00:35:10Coach
00:35:10Look at him
00:35:11Yeah, that is his shot
00:35:13Oh, all right
00:35:14I see
00:35:15He's third in the NBA
00:35:17In field goal percentage
00:35:19And making his return
00:35:22To the lineup
00:35:22For the Thunder
00:35:24After missing the last
00:35:25Six games
00:35:25For the Cavs
00:35:27He's also fifth
00:35:28In the league
00:35:29In rebounding
00:35:29And
00:35:30Guy's a very good player
00:35:32This team
00:35:33Just
00:35:34Everybody
00:35:34They put on the floor
00:35:35Can play
00:35:37They're all starter level players
00:35:39Harper
00:35:41Rises
00:35:42Left it short
00:35:43Long rebound to Johnson
00:35:45Johnson
00:35:46Turns
00:35:47Pump fake
00:35:47Short hook
00:35:48No
00:35:48Another offensive board
00:35:50For San Antonio
00:35:51Castle
00:35:55In the paint
00:35:56Floats it up
00:35:57No
00:35:58But
00:35:58Got the soft bounce
00:35:59One thing that's important
00:36:01When you're guard
00:36:02Going into paint
00:36:02Is to play off two feet
00:36:04If you played off one foot
00:36:05That would have been
00:36:05A way tougher shot
00:36:06Playing off two feet
00:36:07Gives him an opportunity
00:36:08To have more strength
00:36:09On that shot
00:36:09But he also can do other things
00:36:11If the big is up
00:36:12And he cannot get the shot off
00:36:13Hardenstein
00:36:15No
00:36:15Rebound Harper
00:36:17And he's holding his
00:36:18Left leg
00:36:20But looks to be okay
00:36:21Johnson
00:36:22Off the window
00:36:24No good
00:36:25Mitchell
00:36:28In and out dribble
00:36:29Sets up Wallace
00:36:31And now Hardenstein
00:36:34With the handoff
00:36:34To Holmgren
00:36:35Holmgren
00:36:38Won't drop for him
00:36:40And there is a whistle
00:36:42We're going the other way
00:36:43Fallon Hardenstein
00:36:44Are you ready for big time basketball?
00:36:52The Emirates NBA Cup Championship

00:37:04Slash cup
00:37:05Coach we hear OKC talking about
00:37:08How everybody on their team
00:37:09Got better
00:37:10But no one has made a big jump
00:37:12Like
00:37:12Like Mitchell has made
00:37:13I mean last year
00:37:14He had a 6.5 point
00:37:15This year he's averaging 14 points
00:37:17I mean the big jump
00:37:18I mean the big jump that he's made
00:37:19He's 12th in steals
00:37:20He has 3.6 assists
00:37:22Everything has went up
00:37:23His minutes have went up
00:37:24You can tell the work
00:37:24That he's put in this summer
00:37:26Has got him more opportunities
00:37:27We talked about this
00:37:30In the first game
00:37:31Dwayne
00:37:31But great fake there
00:37:33By a 7-footer
00:37:35Chet Holmgren
00:37:36Shot fake out
00:37:37After the dribble
00:37:39Got Cornette up
00:37:39And he gets a trip to the line
00:37:41Could you imagine
00:37:42Shaq doing a shot fake
00:37:43Could you imagine
00:37:47Maybe Patrick Ewing
00:37:49Maybe Pat Ewing
00:37:50Would have had a little shot fake
00:37:52Yes
00:37:52This has been a little bit
00:37:53Of a slugfest
00:37:54As Wimby
00:37:54He's only played around
00:37:553 minutes
00:37:56But the lip of Chet Holmgren
00:37:57Off of that elbow
00:38:00Perhaps earlier
00:38:01From Castle
00:38:03Was it Harper
00:38:04Who caught him with the elbow
00:38:06But you know
00:38:06Everybody I've talked to
00:38:08About Chet Holmgren
00:38:09Says what people miss
00:38:11Because
00:38:11I think he's thin
00:38:13And everything else
00:38:14They miss how tough he is
00:38:15Yeah
00:38:15That this guy is a tough guy
00:38:18And a great competitor
00:38:19Castle
00:38:23Skip pass
00:38:24But Sal
00:38:25Line it up
00:38:26With three
00:38:26Left it short
00:38:27They are just four
00:38:28For 23
00:38:29From downtown
00:38:31Hard to the rack
00:38:33What a great run
00:38:35Wimbledyama getting up
00:38:36Off the bench
00:38:37He's going to come back in
00:38:38And try to help him
00:38:40Cut this lead down
00:38:41They'd love to have it
00:38:42Under 10
00:38:42At least at the half
00:38:43But when you're going to come back in
00:38:44But when you're going to come back in
00:38:44But with the elbow was a plus seven
00:38:45In his three minutes
00:38:46He's back at the scorer's table
00:38:48For the Spurs
00:38:49Johnson
00:38:52Spinning
00:38:54In the paint
00:38:55Outside Castle
00:38:56They swing it
00:38:57They swing it
00:38:57Fox for three
00:38:59Short
00:38:59Fox got his own
00:39:01Midrange
00:39:03Fading away
00:39:04Won't go
00:39:05And they continue to struggle
00:39:07From the floor
00:39:07And they've just taken away
00:39:09Everything
00:39:09We talked about
00:39:10You come in with a game plan
00:39:12And it doesn't necessarily work
00:39:13Because they take away
00:39:14Everything you want to do
00:39:15And it's got to be demoralizing
00:39:17When they extend the lead
00:39:18With SGA on the bench
00:39:20Gilgis-Alexander on the floor
00:39:22Now
00:39:22As Dort
00:39:22Misses off the heel
00:39:24Caruso
00:39:25Oh
00:39:26Got a great finish
00:39:27And the Spurs
00:39:29Need to talk it over
00:39:30It's a 14-2
00:39:32OKC run
00:39:333.52 to go
00:39:38In the second
00:39:38Let's get a word now

00:40:1216-point advantage
00:40:16For OKC
00:40:17Chet Holmgren
00:40:18Nine points so far
00:40:19Coach
00:40:19And sometimes success
00:40:21Is as simple
00:40:22As just playing hard
00:40:23Chet Holmgren
00:40:25Seven-footer
00:40:26Sprinting the floor
00:40:27To get a dunk
00:40:29At the other end
00:40:31This OKC team
00:40:33Just comes at you
00:40:34In waves
00:40:35And how impressive
00:40:37Is it that they
00:40:38As you both talked
00:40:39About earlier
00:40:40Individually
00:40:41They've all gotten better
00:40:42And then collectively
00:40:44They've all remained
00:40:45On the same page
00:40:46Well
00:40:47Winning cures
00:40:48A lot of things
00:40:49And I think they realize
00:40:50This team's mature
00:40:51Enough to realize
00:40:52That
00:40:53If we win
00:40:55At a high level
00:40:55We'll all get our credit
00:40:57We'll all get paid
00:40:59Everything will work out
00:41:01People pay for winning
00:41:02In this league
00:41:03They do
00:41:04Prime insights
00:41:07Victor Wimbanyama
00:41:08Plus seven
00:41:10If you join this late
00:41:10He's only played three minutes
00:41:11San Antonio
00:41:15Looking to go on a run
00:41:16Here to close
00:41:17The gap
00:41:18Against this juggernaut
00:41:20That is OKC
00:41:21Fox
00:41:24Stops
00:41:26Kick it out to Barnes
00:41:27Barnes on the drive
00:41:29Fouled
00:41:30By Holmgren
00:41:31And that's what you have to do though
00:41:33They got good ball movement
00:41:35If you can move their defense
00:41:37You can either get open threes
00:41:38Which they haven't been able to make
00:41:40Or you can attack closeouts
00:41:42Nothing's gonna be easy
00:41:43You're not coming down
00:41:44And getting your first option
00:41:45You know
00:41:47Because Wimby is in the game
00:41:49That's one of the main reasons
00:41:51They even got that layup
00:41:52Because they have to stay home
00:41:53On Wimby
00:41:53You don't want him to get that lob
00:41:55And get him going
00:41:55So they stay home on him
00:41:57And then Barnes is able
00:41:58To get down that paint
00:41:59Without Wimby in the game
00:42:00That lane is not opening up
00:42:01That is for sure
00:42:03San Antonio shooting
00:42:06Under 29%
00:42:08In this ballgame so far
00:42:0917% from three-point range
00:42:12They're just two for ten
00:42:14In this second quarter
00:42:16From downtown
00:42:19Yeah, Michael
00:42:19I think they're
00:42:20Two-point looks
00:42:21A bit tough
00:42:22But they've had good looks
00:42:23From three
00:42:24They've got to make those
00:42:25That could certainly
00:42:27Turn the tide
00:42:27In this ballgame
00:42:28If those start to drop
00:42:29Wimby Nama and Shed
00:42:31Dort comes over
00:42:32On the double
00:42:33Castle
00:42:34Turns
00:42:35Kick out
00:42:36Easily stolen
00:42:37Dangerous pass
00:42:38J-dub
00:42:41Dort
00:42:41And that's a tough catch
00:42:43There
00:42:43Shea Gildas Alexander
00:42:44Has it
00:42:45Mid-range J
00:42:47Good
00:42:47He has 12
00:42:49They now have 15 points
00:42:52Already off the turnovers
00:42:53Wimby Nama
00:42:55And
00:42:58An offensive foul
00:42:59Is called
00:43:00Shea Gildas Alexander
00:43:02Sacrificing the body
00:43:03Chet Holmgren
00:43:09Gets hit in the knee
00:43:09By his own guy
00:43:10Lou Dort
00:43:11Did he elbow him in the knee?
00:43:13Yeah
00:43:13Look that way
00:43:15That's a strong dude
00:43:16To elbow you in the knee
00:43:17He would be about the last guy
00:43:19I'd pick
00:43:20Facts
00:43:20He's a brick ball
00:43:23Coach
00:43:24It's crazy to say this
00:43:26Because he's an MVP
00:43:28But SGA was just off the floor
00:43:30I didn't even notice
00:43:31Necessarily
00:43:32Because they were playing so well
00:43:33Sometimes you like
00:43:34Get the MVP back in the
00:43:36In the game
00:43:37They're so good
00:43:39That you didn't even notice
00:43:40That he was not even on the floor
00:43:41Which is
00:43:42Which is crazy to say
00:43:43That's how great this team is
00:43:44They're a machine
00:43:45Fox
00:43:46Got the role
00:43:47Well and here again
00:43:49Dwayne talks about
00:43:51Wimbenyama
00:43:52Basically just creating shots
00:43:54Right there
00:43:55Hartenstein had to stay with
00:43:57Wimbenyama
00:43:57At the three point line
00:43:58Fox able to get to the rim
00:44:00And an offensive foul
00:44:03Is going against
00:44:03Hartenstein
00:44:04Is going to be his second foul
00:44:06The great players
00:44:09Help their teammates
00:44:11Just by being on the floor
00:44:13Watch
00:44:15Hartenstein's a shot blocker
00:44:17He's at the three point line
00:44:19With Victor Wimbenyama
00:44:20That gives Fox a chance
00:44:21To get to the rim
00:44:22They haven't had any of that
00:44:24Fox for three
00:44:27Bottoms
00:44:28Three pointer of the ball game
00:44:33For San Antonio
00:44:3411 point advantage for the Thunder
00:44:37And Gilgis Alexander threw it away
00:44:40Well he thought he was going to have the three off the dribble
00:44:43But a great late contest there
00:44:46And he had to pass the ball
00:44:48Stay tuned for the half
00:44:51Presented by AT&T
00:44:52With Taylor Rooks
00:44:54Dirk Nowitzki
00:44:55Steve Nash
00:44:55Blake Griffin
00:44:56And Udonis Haslam
00:44:57All coming up at the break
00:44:59Under two minutes to go
00:45:00Here in the second quarter
00:45:01Fox changes directions
00:45:03Forced to give it up
00:45:04Always going to take a tough shot
00:45:05And it's foul
00:45:06Fox could get it under ten right here
00:45:10I think with the struggles they've had
00:45:14From three
00:45:14And the points off the turnovers
00:45:16If you could go into halftime
00:45:18D-Wave down
00:45:20Less than ten
00:45:21You'd feel pretty good about yourself
00:45:23You have to
00:45:24Even though
00:45:25If he's just going to play three minute spurts like this
00:45:28We're going to have to go in the locker room
00:45:29And talk about something else too though
00:45:30We need to put the right guys in the corner then
00:45:33I need these shots to go down
00:45:34No that's exactly right
00:45:36And again we talked about it
00:45:38OKC will give up
00:45:41Threes
00:45:42I mean they've given up 14 a game
00:45:44They're 23rd in the league in that
00:45:45You've got to make them
00:45:47When you get them
00:45:47And they've had good looks
00:45:48They've created good looks
00:45:50Spurs are 10th in the NBA
00:45:51In three points field goal percentage
00:45:53For shooting just 20%
00:45:56From downtown so far tonight
00:45:58This is Williams
00:45:59Front iron
00:46:00No
00:46:00Offensive board to the Thunder
00:46:03Home home home home
00:46:05Good job
00:46:06Gildas Alexander
00:46:0712 points
00:46:09Little stop and go
00:46:11Telfe blocked
00:46:13The cell got a piece of it
00:46:18Outstanding defense
00:46:19By San Antonio
00:46:20Well if you can put them
00:46:23In the half court
00:46:24You
00:46:25I'm not saying they're bad
00:46:26But you can compete with them
00:46:28It's when you're turning the ball over
00:46:30And they get out in transition
00:46:31Great defense
00:46:33And then a foul on SGA
00:46:35And a chance to cut into this a little bit further
00:46:39Speaking of OKC
00:46:42One of the things I took away from the meetings we had yesterday with them
00:46:45Coach said this team came back in better conditioning
00:46:49When a team that wins the championship
00:46:51Get about a month and a half off
00:46:53And they come back and they're in better shape
00:46:55Then you don't have to start from the beginning
00:46:57You can already pick up from where you left off
00:46:59And so that's
00:47:00A part of this early success for this team
00:47:02Shea's talked about
00:47:03The motivation
00:47:04Dominant a season ago
00:47:07Didn't feel they were as dominant in the postseason
00:47:09And they heard people say
00:47:10Oh you barely got by Indiana
00:47:11Oh if Tyrese Halliburton had
00:47:13Been able to play through the entire game
00:47:15All that talking
00:47:16At least for Shea
00:47:17That created motivation
00:47:1965 seconds to go in the second quarter
00:47:22Williams doing a lot
00:47:24Teardrop no
00:47:25Blocked out of there
00:47:26By Wimbenyama
00:47:27Great defense by San Antonio
00:47:29Dylan Harper down the leg
00:47:32Got it to go with the left
00:47:33Tell you Dylan Harper on that last possession
00:47:36Defended like his dad used to
00:47:3810-0 San Antonio run
00:47:41Crowd coming alive in the closing moments
00:47:49Of this second quarter
00:47:51Williams a lot of dribbling again
00:47:53Behind the back
00:47:54Elbow J
00:47:55Rebound Bissell
00:47:57San Antonio's largest deficit
00:48:00In this first half
00:48:01With 16
00:48:02I'm going to give you some in-depth analysis
00:48:04San Antonio is quite a bit better
00:48:07With Victor Wimbenyama
00:48:08Breaking news
00:48:11That's why you have to go get a guy
00:48:12With my experience
00:48:14Wimbeny
00:48:14Bottoms
00:48:16Woo
00:48:17Let's go Wimbeny
00:48:19It's a one possession game
00:48:22Oh man he's exciting man
00:48:25He's out loud
00:48:29He's been taking away a dead ball shot
00:48:32Look at this defensive possession
00:48:35Everybody getting involved
00:48:38And then Dylan Harper right to the rim
00:48:41Great finish
00:48:42Stan Dwayne
00:48:44Stan Dwayne
00:48:45Wimbeny's a plus 20
00:48:46In five minutes
00:48:48In seven minutes
00:48:50And they're minus 23
00:48:53The rest of the time
00:48:55In the other 17 minutes
00:48:58Eight seconds
00:48:59A.J. Mitchell
00:49:01Indeed
00:49:02Surrounded by great shirts
00:49:04Hart and Stein
00:49:04Patented shot
00:49:05Won't fall
00:49:06And how about this
00:49:08San Antonio
00:49:10At one point
00:49:11Trailed by 16
00:49:13The Wimbeny effect
00:49:14They're down by three
00:49:16Five points for Wimbeny
00:49:19Five rebounds
00:49:20He's played five minutes
00:49:22And he's a plus 20
00:49:24What a ball game
00:49:28Halftime here in Vegas
00:49:31You're watching
00:49:31The Emirates NBA Cup

00:49:35You're watching

00:49:59About to get underway
00:50:00Momentarily
00:50:01OKC
00:50:02A 49-46
00:50:03Advantage
00:50:04First half stats
00:50:05Presented by Kia
00:50:07Victor Wimbenyama
00:50:09A plus 20
00:50:10In limited minutes
00:50:11In that first half
00:50:12Five points
00:50:13Two of three
00:50:13Shooting five rebounds
00:50:15Shea Gilgis Alexander
00:50:17Twelve points
00:50:18On six of twelve
00:50:19Shooting back here
00:50:20Inside T-Mobile Arena
00:50:21Mike Brady
00:50:22Stan Van Gundy
00:50:22Dwayne Wade
00:50:23Cassidy Hubbard
00:50:24With us as well
00:50:25And Dwayne OKC
00:50:26Getting the job done
00:50:27In the first half
00:50:28Doing what they've done
00:50:28All season long
00:50:29Turning defense
00:50:30Into offense
00:50:30Yeah when OKC
00:50:31Is around
00:50:32You better put up
00:50:33Your cookies
00:50:34And your milk
00:50:34This team
00:50:35Is very very good
00:50:36I mean they
00:50:37Turn the ball over
00:50:38They make teams
00:50:39Turn themselves over
00:50:39So much
00:50:40They score as much
00:50:41On turnovers
00:50:41As teams probably
00:50:42Score
00:50:42In the first quarter
00:50:44This team
00:50:44Is that good
00:50:45They live
00:50:46Off you turn the ball over
00:50:47Off you turn the basketball over
00:50:48Well Wimbenyama
00:50:52Obviously changed the game
00:50:54AWS inside the game
00:50:57Look at Wimbenyama
00:50:58On the boards
00:50:59And look how many people
00:51:00Are around him
00:51:01When he gets it
00:51:03Two guys on him
00:51:05But every
00:51:05All ten eyes on him
00:51:07And he finds
00:51:08Dylan Harper
00:51:08For a three
00:51:10He draws so much
00:51:11Attention
00:51:13That's what we call
00:51:15Gravity
00:51:1616th best
00:51:17In the NBA
00:51:18Right now
00:51:19But as the season
00:51:21Goes on
00:51:22And he gets healthier
00:51:23It's gonna be
00:51:24Even more
00:51:24Third quarter
00:51:26Underway
00:51:27Here in Vegas
00:51:28OKC led by
00:51:30As many as
00:51:3016
00:51:31In that first half
00:51:32Gilgis Alexander
00:51:33Dump off
00:51:34Hardenstein
00:51:35Left it short
00:51:36Coach Wimbeny's on track
00:51:38To play ten minutes
00:51:39Tonight
00:51:39Well that's the whole problem
00:51:43When we showed
00:51:44That star comparison
00:51:45The biggest problem
00:51:47Was that
00:51:47Shea Gilgis Alexander
00:51:49Had played 17 minutes
00:51:51And Wimbeny
00:51:52Only seven
00:51:5349-48
00:51:56After the lay-in
00:51:56From Luke Cornett
00:51:57San Antonio
00:51:59Has not led tonight
00:52:00Luke Cornett
00:52:01Has just been
00:52:02An amazing
00:52:03Pickup
00:52:04For San Antonio
00:52:06As a backup
00:52:07And then obviously
00:52:08As a starter
00:52:09For these last 12 games
00:52:10Where they've gone
00:52:12Nine and three
00:52:13And to think
00:52:14Cassidy
00:52:15Luke Cornett
00:52:16Considered
00:52:17Giving up the game
00:52:18Of basketball
00:52:19A couple of years ago
00:52:20Yeah he told me
00:52:21There was a point
00:52:21A few years ago
00:52:22Where every season
00:52:23Felt like it might be
00:52:24His last
00:52:24And he was contemplating
00:52:25What was next for him
00:52:26Bouncing between
00:52:26The NBA and G League
00:52:28But then he said
00:52:29He stopped chasing outcomes
00:52:30And started playing
00:52:31With the mindset of
00:52:32Let's see where this
00:52:33Takes me
00:52:33And Cornett told me
00:52:34He was grateful
00:52:35For that time
00:52:35And that shift
00:52:36Mentally
00:52:37Detaching from the pressure
00:52:38Of a career tie line
00:52:40And from there
00:52:41Gratitude
00:52:42And then a championship
00:52:43Run in Boston
00:52:43And now here
00:52:44In San Antonio
00:52:45Guys
00:52:45Nine years in the league
00:52:47Thank you Cass
00:52:48Head pass broken up
00:52:49By Cornett
00:52:50Right on cue
00:52:50And it'll be
00:52:51San Antonio ball
00:52:52Created a turnover there
00:52:54And knocked it off
00:52:55Of Partenstein
00:52:55And has one of the
00:52:57Coolest
00:52:58Possible nicknames
00:52:59In the NBA
00:53:00With French Vanilla
00:53:01With Wimby
00:53:03One of the coolest
00:53:06Nicknames in the NBA
00:53:07Right there
00:53:07If Wimby was healthy
00:53:08We'd see the two of them
00:53:09Playing together
00:53:10A little bit
00:53:11And that would be fun
00:53:12How about Vassell
00:53:14Giving SJ a piece
00:53:16Of his own medicine
00:53:16Drawing the foul
00:53:17And you talked about
00:53:19Nicknames in the first game
00:53:20D-Wade
00:53:21There's a lot of
00:53:22Nicknames here
00:53:22With the Spurs
00:53:23We are missing the
00:53:24Nicknames in today's game
00:53:25That's what I'm talking
00:53:25About right here
00:53:26My favorite
00:53:27Besides French Vanilla
00:53:28Would be the Slash Brothers
00:53:30Yeah the Slash Brothers
00:53:30That's pretty cool
00:53:31Castle and Harper
00:53:32I like that
00:53:33White Castle is cool
00:53:34White Castle is cool
00:53:35Pineapple Express
00:53:36The sellers at the
00:53:37Free Throw Line
00:53:38Along with
00:53:39Stephon Castle
00:53:40Pineapple Express
00:53:42Obviously referring to
00:53:43What Cassidy?
00:53:45Well their hairstyle
00:53:46There you go
00:53:46But I did want to say
00:53:47That Luke Cornett
00:53:48Fully endorses
00:53:50The French Vanilla
00:53:51Because he says
00:53:51Vanilla
00:53:52You know
00:53:52That kind of describes
00:53:53My game
00:53:54And also
00:53:55Castle and Dylan Harper
00:53:56Totally on board
00:53:58With the Slash Brothers
00:53:59But Dylan Harper
00:54:00Says they're going to
00:54:00Grow out of it
00:54:01I don't know
00:54:01If that's how
00:54:02Nicknames work though
00:54:03But we'll see
00:54:04Well I'll tell you what
00:54:05Luke Cornett
00:54:06A great kick up
00:54:07The front office
00:54:09With the Spurs
00:54:10Has done a fabulous job
00:54:12Putting a team
00:54:13Around Wimbanyama
00:54:14You know
00:54:14Their draft picks
00:54:15Have all been outstanding
00:54:16And then they made
00:54:19The trade for Barnes
00:54:21And Fox
00:54:21Kicked up Cornett
00:54:23In the offseason
00:54:24Brian Wright
00:54:25The general manager
00:54:26His assistant
00:54:27Adam Glessner
00:54:28Outstanding job
00:54:30And this team's
00:54:31A legit contender
00:54:32Right now
00:54:33Swarming defense
00:54:35From San Antonio
00:54:36Dort
00:54:37Nice speed
00:54:38With the shot clock
00:54:39Widing down
00:54:40It's OKC 53
00:54:46San Antonio 50
00:54:48Fox
00:54:49Snaking down the lane
00:54:51Got the southpaw finish
00:54:52And those guards
00:54:54Just live in the lane
00:54:55That's one of the
00:54:57Cleanest layup
00:54:58Opportunities they've had
00:54:59With Wimby
00:55:00On the bench
00:55:01SGA
00:55:05Outside
00:55:06Williams
00:55:07Yes
00:55:08We've seen it
00:55:13In both games
00:55:13Tonight
00:55:14When the guards
00:55:14Can get two feet
00:55:15In the paint
00:55:16In the paint
00:55:16Your defense
00:55:17Is compromised
00:55:18And you get
00:55:19Good shots
00:55:20Then it's just
00:55:21Make or miss
00:55:21Inside or outside
00:55:22Castle
00:55:23Yes sir
00:55:25Coach
00:55:26He's growing
00:55:27As a shooter
00:55:28I'll tell you what
00:55:29And if he does
00:55:30Watch out
00:55:30If you're the rest
00:55:31Of the league
00:55:32Tell them about it
00:55:32Coming off a 30 point game
00:55:35As Williams
00:55:36Coughed it up
00:55:37Fox
00:55:38Passes in the building
00:55:40First lead
00:55:42Of the ball game
00:55:43For San Antonio
00:55:43What a great job there
00:55:45He did
00:55:45Of cutting
00:55:46Holmgren off
00:55:47To get the layup
00:55:49He had gone straight
00:55:50To the other side
00:55:51Holmgren would have
00:55:52Blocked that
00:55:52Once again
00:55:54He used
00:55:54His body
00:55:55As it
00:55:57As it
00:55:58Just like
00:55:59Josh Hart does
00:56:00When we talk
00:56:00About the Knicks
00:56:01And foul
00:56:04On Lou Dort
00:56:05Running up the floor
00:56:06You see little guys
00:56:07Do this all the time
00:56:08He's not that small
00:56:08But just cut him off
00:56:09Take away his angle
00:56:10To be able to shot block
00:56:11Just a great job
00:56:13I don't understand
00:56:14How this is not
00:56:16A transition
00:56:17Take foul
00:56:18I don't
00:56:19They stop
00:56:20If you're gonna
00:56:21Call that
00:56:21And not make it
00:56:22A take foul
00:56:23You gotta let the
00:56:23Break go
00:56:24That's in my opinion
00:56:26Monty McCutcheon
00:56:27Would probably
00:56:28Disagree with me
00:56:29And Monty knows
00:56:29More than I do
00:56:30But to me
00:56:31That's bad officiating
00:56:33Fox with the floater
00:56:34Monty McCutcheon
00:56:38Signs to key
00:56:38Rolls back from us
00:56:39Yeah
00:56:39I'm not gonna win
00:56:42Any arguments
00:56:42With Monty
00:56:43I never did
00:56:43When I was coaching
00:56:44And he was repping
00:56:45I'm certainly
00:56:46Not going too down
00:56:48Spurs building
00:56:49Momentum
00:56:49Barnes
00:56:50Outside
00:56:51Vassell
00:56:52Monty
00:56:53Timeout
00:56:55OKC
00:56:57It's a 10-0
00:56:58San Antonio run
00:57:00Well defense to offense
00:57:09For the Spurs
00:57:10Vassell
00:57:12Bottoms
00:57:13All black
00:57:15Back to back
00:57:15This ain't crafting
00:57:16Can't wrap your head around
00:57:18You ain't having
00:57:19Dolls
00:57:20Minimum in this ballgame
00:57:21A 22-point turnaround
00:57:23They lead by six
00:57:25And Victor Wimbanyama
00:57:27Back on the floor
00:57:27For the Spurs
00:57:28Yeah
00:57:28And look
00:57:29They've done it
00:57:30By converting
00:57:30Defense into offense
00:57:31They now have more points
00:57:33Off of turnovers
00:57:34Than OKC does
00:57:35That does not happen often
00:57:37SGA
00:57:39To the rim
00:57:4014
00:57:43For Shea
00:57:45Gilgis-Alexander
00:57:46We talked to De'Aaron Fox
00:57:47Yesterday about
00:57:48You know
00:57:48Him picking and choosing
00:57:49When to be more aggressive
00:57:51We just saw that
00:57:52In that
00:57:52That quick spurt
00:57:53Right there
00:57:54He was very very aggressive
00:57:55For this team
00:57:56Was really led to them
00:57:57Getting the offensive
00:57:58Shots of the gap
00:57:59Wimbanyama
00:58:01Fouled on the pass attempt
00:58:03Wimbanyama
00:58:05Just a count late
00:58:07Getting there
00:58:07SGA
00:58:09Right to the rim
00:58:10Spurs
00:58:13Ball
00:58:14It's fascinating
00:58:17Watching
00:58:17Watch an OKC
00:58:19To finish on a battle
00:58:20With Wimbanyama
00:58:21Williams has the assignment
00:58:24Wimby
00:58:25Skip pass
00:58:26Lassell
00:58:26And he's fouled
00:58:28By Kacen Wallace
00:58:29That was a very good
00:58:31Skip
00:58:31Pass
00:58:32By Wimbanyama
00:58:33Let's check in with Cass
00:58:34Yeah guys
00:58:35Alex Caruso
00:58:36Took full control
00:58:37Of that timeout
00:58:38After that 10-0 run
00:58:40By the Spurs
00:58:41He was telling this team
00:58:42Don't worry about
00:58:43The bright lights here
00:58:44Focus on us
00:58:45Do our stuff
00:58:46Don't let them go downhill
00:58:47On those ice hills
00:58:49And he's the veteran
00:58:49Presence on this team
00:58:50So they were
00:58:51Locked in
00:58:52Thank you Cass
00:58:54The cell
00:58:54Can't hit
00:58:55Caruso
00:58:56Got up for the rebound
00:58:57I tell you
00:58:58If San Antonio
00:59:00Even made a reasonable
00:59:01Number of threes
00:59:02Right now
00:59:03This game
00:59:04Could be totally
00:59:05Different
00:59:05And those are
00:59:06Open shots
00:59:08And they're playing
00:59:08To the weak side
00:59:09The way you have to
00:59:10Well I think
00:59:12That's one positive
00:59:12Here you go
00:59:13Downhill
00:59:14Castle
00:59:15Another highlight
00:59:22Wow
00:59:22He has some finishes
00:59:24D that are incredible
00:59:26And Cozun found out
00:59:27He said he's 6'7
00:59:286'7
00:59:30Strong
00:59:31I didn't mean to do that
00:59:336'7
00:59:34I didn't mean to do that
00:59:36Oh
00:59:37Wendy
00:59:39Oh no
00:59:39Turned it over
00:59:42That's Wendy's fourth turnover
00:59:44Look at this
00:59:46Oh
00:59:46Well just Fox
00:59:54Just making sure
00:59:54That he pushed the pace
00:59:55And Castle
00:59:55Go up off two feet
00:59:57He's really athletic
00:59:58Man
00:59:58And just unbelievable
00:59:59Finish underneath
00:59:59Eat
