00:00The Spurs put up 73 in the first half.
00:0373-65, Spurs basketball in Ken's 5.
00:06Ken's 5 zone, Nate Ryan has your halftab report after the break.
00:10Series here inside of the Moody Center, it's the Spurs and the Kings.
00:1473-65, okay.
00:16So number 32 is in the building.
00:18We know that.
00:19Yes, sir.
00:20It's a hard jersey to find as we know.
00:23They're usually all sold out.
00:25Where's number 6?
00:26We couldn't even plan a number 6 anymore.
00:33Come on, man.
00:35Come on, man.
00:36Man.
00:37I should have just won one.
00:38We should have had a plan out there.
00:40We don't need one.
00:40There's someone out there.
00:42We'll find it as Murray gets us started in the second half.
00:46If you're just tuning in, the Spurs went on an 11-0 run to start this game.
00:49The Kings battled back.
00:51It's been a game ever since.
00:53Let's keep our eyes on the first five minutes of the third floor.
00:57Keep your eyes on that.
00:58Victor fouled.
01:00Count it.
01:02Well, this is the rodeo road trip.
01:04So, Keegan Murray, he's trying to go bull riding.
01:09He's on the back here.
01:11Four and and one.
01:13There's nothing he could do there.
01:14I'm not done.
01:20Monyama, 13 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks.
01:23Moved into fifth on the all-time Spurs blocks list.
01:27Passing Billy Paltz.
01:32The third quarter you want to get in the bonus first offensively stay out of the defense
01:39like you said the first five minutes right AJ that's what we always talk about first
01:44shot 16 free throws in the first half 14 of them Kings were 14 of 15 for the free throw
01:52line loose ball foul against victor that's his second maybe got him across the face right there neck
02:12face all the above Murray stepped back three nope and that's what you want you
02:22want Murray to put that ball on the floor you don't want him shooting spot up threes yeah
02:27like the one in the corner and you're right move him around
02:33the minyama good precious shoe with a rebound King's riding a 15 game losing streak of
02:41franchise record worst record in the NBA at 12 and 45 it's been a struggle to the
02:49two a switches for three it's a six point game hard to figure how they've lost 15 in a row
02:54because
02:54they've come in here and weathered the storm early and they put on a pretty decent performance
03:03Fox will get to the free throw line so no Zach Levine out with a right fifth finger surgery that
03:09he had
03:10recently Domas Sabonis left knee surgery he's done for the year they trade for DeAndre Hunter he plays two games
03:15in a
03:15King's uniform for Doug Christie then he gets hit the eye and he's done for the year of surgery
03:22that reminds me of a couple of our seasons there in the mid 90s but the Kings are now poising
03:29at a high
03:29draft pick they have a lot of solid pieces and what a draft this year my goodness yeah and you
03:36know the
03:36college game well so you're gonna be you know excited if your team that's in the lottery that
03:41there's a lot of talent this who do you like AJ AJ the Banser he's gonna be a star right
03:46he's going
03:49to be a star oh Westbrook shows De'Aaron Fox didn't like Tyler Ford and the foul call
04:05the fouls but a sense to Westbrook Doug Christie out on the floor trying to talk with Tyler Ford
04:21Victor is going to shoot the team Westbrook was not happy at the start of this game on the first
04:28play guys he
04:29thought he got fouled and after the first time out he went and was not the team huddled and was
04:34talking with the officials he's been on the official all night
04:39yeah they get tied up a little bit and there's a foul
04:44and then we lost Westbrook with the push and give your Doug Christie there coach what do you tell the
04:50officials you tell the officials that hey watch the hold in the grab try to catch it on the first
04:58part of the foul
05:03but you know Russell Westbrook is a real animated player very intense in his mind you know they
05:12haven't lost 50 in a row he's thinking about this game tonight he's trying to be a role model and
05:17an
05:17example to the rest of his team he's got a lot of pride yeah and he's going up against a
05:25guy that had a
05:27really nice career not so much in team wins with Sacramento and De'Aaron Fox
05:40he's got 10 of 10 from the free-throw line
05:49back to a six-point game over to Wemenyama
05:55Kassel flies in
05:58Kassel flies in
05:58no box out one way was cleared for Steph
06:03eighth offensive rebound 15th second chance points for the Spurs
06:07Murray off the three
06:09Devin DeZell off to the races
06:16well AJ you talked about that in the first half the long rebounds
06:20yeah
06:27DeRozan trying to work almost turned it over Murray mid-range rolls out
06:34Deegan Murray just a second in back after missing 20 straight with an injury
06:38Kassel to spin beautiful move from Stephon Kassel
06:42and on that one he took a little bit of the mustard off the spin right
06:47miss the end one on this up-and-under spin move the first time I really
06:52impressed with his ability to change pace but I actually change direction that really
06:57changing pace who's deaf Kassel gonna fly out of nowhere no box out looking for the
07:05Kings that's not a vicious dunk but there he is I mean he's able to change direct
07:10without really changing pace you guys six six two hundred fifty pounds coming at you with that type of speed
07:16in that
07:16let it is
07:16I know another dog
07:19I know it's come out and a double double twelve points eleven rebounds
07:28to sell the pump fake
07:31no Victor jump to stuff bit too early there would have had to put back dunk
07:36miss timed a little bit maybe he pushed in the back
07:39miss time that one
07:42fourth block for Victor Imaniaba
07:45Westbrook the foul
07:47no
07:47is that a clear path no
07:49well
07:50third
07:51players out in front of him there were
07:53there were
07:53it's Victor did you put a piece of that
07:55no
07:55no he didn't
07:57no
08:06side up for the Spurs
08:13they get the guys they did give Victor a block that's for
08:16for Victor
08:18we're not going to tell anybody
08:19we're not going to tell anybody
08:24I mean Yama
08:26packed by DeRozan
08:27I used to get irritated playing against John Stockton in Utah
08:31and you know he finished with fourteen assists twelve assists
08:35and then I'd go back and watch the film
08:37and some of those assists was when Carl Malone dribbled three times
08:40yes
08:41yes
08:42yes
08:42that's not the traditional meaning of an assist definition of an assist
08:47well I mean when he broke the assist record I mean it was right there on the table
08:50and Carl Malone catches it fumbles it puts it on the floor
08:53and they're like there it is
08:54there's the assist and I was like that that's an assist
08:57like I'm not going to take anything away from Stockton because he obviously
09:02did a great job passing the ball and they used to get out and run
09:05but yeah I think the scorekeepers in Utah were very generous
09:09it was really gratifying winning in Utah
09:13there was a stretch we couldn't beat him
09:14and then when Tim arrived
09:18it was all over
09:19it was all over
09:20after he figured it out
09:21after he figured it out
09:21yes
09:24another foul called on Victor that's his third
09:29well speaking of assists
09:32we go back to 1999
09:35in MSG
09:37was that Sean's one assist of the year?
09:39that was my one and only assist to you
09:43I love it man
09:44the game winner
09:45that might have been my only assist to Avery Johnson
09:48he was always passing me to the ball
09:50you made it count
09:51and you won the championship after that
09:52well he and Mario gave me a lot of assist
09:54protecting me on defense
09:56and then when they got beat
09:575-0
09:59David Robinson and Tim was there
10:02such a special year
10:04yeah man
10:04I mean Pop told me for years
10:06he's like that's the best match you ever made you like
10:11AJ and I used to always fight for that short corner
10:13for that corner 3
10:15I want that corner 3
10:17AJ wanted that short corner
10:18and that time we got it right
10:20yeah Pop used to tell me
10:21you don't have to
10:22be able to shoot from 10 different spots
10:24just find 2
10:27AJ
10:27kids grow up
10:28dreaming of
10:29hitting a game winning shot
10:31to win a championship
10:32and you got to do it
10:33isn't that amazing
10:34what do you
10:35what does that feel like
10:36when you think about it
10:37you remember it forever
10:40and then you go back in your mind
10:42and you also think about 95
10:44when we were 62 and 20
10:47oh yeah
10:47we thought that was going to be our first championship year
10:50I mean we were the best team
10:51Houston just played
10:52out of their minds
10:53in that series
10:54and we had our chances
10:57yep
11:01that's what made 99 so special
11:03I mean we
11:04that year
11:04next year we had the best record
11:06in the league again if I'm not mistaken
11:07and we beat the Utah
11:08on that second round
11:09so nothing's ever guaranteed
11:14there's always
11:15surprises in the NBA
11:19battles that you have to fight
11:21steps that you have to take
11:23you guys know all the steps that it took
11:24to win that title in 99
11:26Spurs are young in that aspect in terms of playoff experience
11:30you know Harrison Barnes
11:31and Mason Plumlee the two guys that have the most playoff games under their belt
11:35on the Spurs 71 games but relatively no playoff experience on this team AJ
11:39but I like the balance in terms of the versatility of this team
11:46they're 10 deep
11:47they're solidly 10 deep
11:48and
11:50some guys step up
11:51Harrison Barnes steps up off the bench and have a big night
11:54maybe as
11:56you know maybe as
11:57Devin Vassell
11:58it's just
11:59you got so many different options especially offensively
12:03a lot of switchable parts defensively
12:07women Yama spins could bake it in
12:10here comes Westbrook who's been fiery to start the second half
12:13right now
12:14lost it
12:15as it went up maybe Victor got a piece again
12:19Fox inside
12:20swatted by Westbrook
12:21he was waiting for that one
12:22timed it beautifully
12:24Reyno
12:25dunks it again
12:26timeout Mitch Johnson
12:27He did not make it back to midcourt
12:32No he didn't
12:34that's that YMCA defense
12:35that's right
12:38so Mitch Johnson and his squad want to talk things over
12:41it's a three-point game
12:42by the Methodist Healthcare System
12:44Methodist Healthcare proudly offers 10 neighborhood ERs
12:46across San Antonio
12:48and by Jack in the Box
12:50the hot mess is back as a munchie meal for Jack's 75th anniversary
12:56the Spurs dedicating a new court yesterday here in Austin
13:00Carter Bryant, Dylan Harper
13:01and the Spurs out there
13:04giving away some shoes
13:05opening a new court
13:07just a ton of things going on
13:09around the community
13:10for Spurs week
13:12Sean and AJ
13:14it's just amazing that the Spurs have developed such a great partnership with the city of Austin
13:17absolutely
13:18absolutely
13:19and the Spurs
13:19for 30 years
13:21have always been dedicated to community
13:24we've always had
13:25you know for the most part
13:27great products on the floor
13:30but giving back in the community has meant so much
13:34and fans in the community really appreciate it
13:38it makes sense to come up here and embrace
13:42the Austin fans
13:43and you're talking about the fastest growing corridor
13:45in the country
13:47the Austin to San Antonio corridor
13:49the cities are growing together
13:51and so you want to be able to capture those fans here
13:54stake your claim and plant your flag in Austin
13:58as opposed to having Houston or Dallas do it early
14:00so it's the smart thing to do
14:02come up here
14:03and just let the Austin fans know that we see you guys
14:06yep
14:06absolutely
14:07and then what's being built back in San Antonio
14:10with the new arena plans and all that stuff
14:12I mean AJ that's pretty exciting
14:13really exciting
14:14and I remember my first game was in Hemisphere Arena
14:18that was a long time ago
14:24here's Garrett Wilson from the Jets
14:29Lake Travis High School alum
14:32he's trying to see Victor in the Spurs tonight
14:34I had a chance to say hello to Michael Gale
14:40before the game
14:41nice man
14:44I've been in part owner for five years now
14:57he's got his double double it says 11th rebound
15:0317 points
15:04that's a tough thing to make that pass
15:07Spurs their 12 turnovers
15:09four more
15:10trying to slip it down there between a couple defenders
15:17there for a second
15:19still a three-point game Spurs led by as many as 15 early on
15:2311-0 start
15:24he's a clock back
15:25Fox up and under
15:27he's just power to do
15:28the owners of Russell Westbrook
15:29he was in good position
15:31as a help defender to look to me like
15:33he kind of went for the Steelers
15:34instead of just establishing position
15:36and stopping
15:36Jared Fox on the defensive end
15:38oh
15:38there's the fourth block for Wendy
15:40maybe they took that fourth one away a couple minutes ago
15:44walks to Rosen
15:45comes down
15:46and
15:47says he's okay
15:50he's gonna come out anyways
15:51Cornette was at the scorers table regardless
15:53what an incredible effort
15:55by Wendy
15:56man
15:58I just destroyed that effort
16:04and let's see
16:05maybe he's landed awkwardly
16:09looks like he got grabbed a little bit
16:12after he dropped that shot
16:14he's on the bench
16:15seems to be okay
16:18that's the best part about this team
16:20Avery mentioned the depth
16:21they
16:21bring in Luke Cornette
16:23another 7 footer off the bench
16:25oh
16:26oh
16:26oh
16:27hey
16:28go
16:31he's out of bounds
16:33he's out of bounds
16:35so Castle and Barnes will make their way
16:37there's Victor
16:39okay
16:41at this stage of the game
16:42you know body language is very important
16:46remember early in the game
16:47Sacramento was really complaining to the officials
16:50on every call
16:51so
16:52this is where kind of that
16:53maturity needs to set in
16:55get some leadership
16:57Harrison Barnes
16:58settled
16:58and turned down
17:02in and out for three
17:06Clifford back in the game
17:07Drew Eubanks as well
17:08right there with Monk
17:09Keegan Murray
17:10and Amar DeRozan
17:13Monk driving
17:15Monk scoring
17:17Malik Monk has had a good game off the bench
17:19he's up to 16 points
17:20oh he made the right read there
17:22beautiful pool through
17:23toward the middle of the floor
17:27runs off on the three of the Spurge
17:29just 7 of 19 from 3 tonight
17:3513 of them against Phoenix
17:36and that win on Thursday
17:37here inside of the Moody Center
17:40Eubanks the floater
17:41and he's big for Sacramento
17:43even though Victor has 4 blocks
17:45they still hit some nice high floaters over
17:46so you want to talk about a guy
17:48who got no looks coming out of college
17:50and the Spurs is a phenomenal job
17:52developing him in his early years
17:55Harper
17:57beautiful
17:59the degree of difficulty on that shot
18:01over a shot blocker
18:03and Avery if you didn't know any better
18:05you think it was right
18:06yes
18:07right
18:08that's his off arm
18:09and he's throwing that little floater up
18:13up
18:13Monk
18:14Monk
18:16Harper
18:16always eyes up with him
18:18when he gets the rebound
18:19always looking up court
18:25He's he's upset he is red-hot. Yeah, he thought he got fouled last time he took the ball with
18:31a basket
18:35He's the owner fantasy ransom. That's easily a foul
18:43Give the ball right back to him
18:45He might knock over the entire team. It's probably takes about the basket
18:58It's about it. Yeah, very makeable short-term memory
19:09That late whistle scared me for a second
19:13That's why he went oh, that's why Avery jumped up in his seat
19:22Oh
19:23second on DeRozan
19:27Calden gets the points back
19:32That's what he's done all year A.J. Just sprinkled in a three ball here there plays bully ball in
19:37the paint
19:37Done a great job of picking his spots from beyond the yard
19:42Kings was a they were a little discombobulated on defense and nice find by dylan harvard
19:49You banks set away stuff by coordinate
19:53But then meet clifford rattles it on his first points of the ball game in 17 minutes
20:00Clifford in the right place at the right time leigh cornet go through you banks to have a seat
20:06That's all foul
20:08They'll get back to the free throw line yeah neat clifford he returned to the bench
20:13After starting the previous three games and
20:16Got one to follow
20:19Sacramento calls a timeout
20:22The scrappy sacramento team tonight again worst record in the nba but tonight you wouldn't know it it's a seven
20:27point game here in austin
20:32So let's do it at all again
20:34Yeah, he's just been terrific with that mid-range game an outstanding effort in hustle right right there
20:39He just beats two kings to the offensive rebound beautiful skin move we talked about this
20:44The whole second half take about when he goes vertical he's been pretty unstoppable in the paint and then in
20:50the open court the ability to
20:51To really change direction without pace
20:54You talk about footwork for big guys but when you look at castle and harper when they're dancing and spinning
21:02In the paint they're terrific for you
21:04I really am am impressed well, they both have a lot of size you know stuff council with 6'6
21:10Seems like he's bigger dylan harper at 6'5 or so
21:13He's gonna start spinning and putting their bodies into you
21:17And you know about that at that point guard position
21:20He's funny over all-star great
21:21They had a quote from ryan harper that went viral talking about his sons it was hilarious
21:28He was saying i don't tell my son what to do well you must be telling dylan harper something right
21:46But that's kind of what you want out of you know somebody who's been there and done that you don't
21:50want them to
21:51You know helicopter over you're like
21:54Talking about helicopters you know he's just gonna add advice when he has to he's not gonna micromanage his kids
22:03That's why dylan harper has been so successful
22:08And by the way his mommy used to coach him too in high school she knew a little something about
22:13the game
22:16Barrett stepping back and hit the three because the former sacramento king
22:23Five and a half years in sacramento
22:31Cliford chucked down there by barnes
22:35He can murray
22:39Morgan is way back again still missed those 20 straight games his second game back he's got a 20 piece
22:45And kind of an off ball screen there
22:49It will work off through eubanks and find that mid-range jumpers that's what's talking about
22:54Kevin is going to play his way in there
22:56A call offensive foul
22:59First personal on kj
23:02He was moving hands let's take a look
23:16That's what i'm saying
23:21That was the fourth team foul
23:24Spurs running into bonus sacramento will be next foul against san antonio 135 remaining in the third
23:34He's coming in the 28th graded offense in the league
23:38Oh, it's that
23:43So kelvin will walk back down for some free throws
23:55You hit 24 left in the third you only probably have three possessions left
24:01So hopefully you can
24:04You're really efficient on your last couple of possessions
24:08He closes third quarter out in style
24:14There's the big fella all good
24:17To ride the bike in the tunnel
24:20No locker room visit needed
24:22After the hard fall
24:26You know he's on a mission
24:28Can only miss four more games
24:31To be considered for postseason accolades
24:34Yeah, well hopefully he's not going to miss anymore
24:36Absolutely
24:42Murray over Fox
24:47He's up again shovel pass
24:49Wendy
24:52How about that set up there from the young guy
24:55Yeah, he's showing us fine
24:57How about the set up when you give the victor the bar in exactly the right place
25:06He's only 19 years old doing that aj you know what i mean
25:09Just a little bit of court savvy
25:11Some poison
25:13To understand your teammates like that
25:15I think you and i at 19
25:16He was trying to pass a trigonometry test
25:19That's right
25:23That's right
25:23Barnes for three
25:25It's good
25:26Off the one beat this
25:30Mr. 100 percent
25:33He's working himself back into four
25:35Exactly what we're talking about
25:38You're two for two
25:40He's had three possessions
25:42He's on a 125
25:44And hopefully get a stop in the rebound
25:49Monk
25:51Passing out
25:52You bet's chest the feet
25:54Missed it
25:54Harper the rebound
25:56One final chance
25:58Time
25:59Take him
26:00Harper behind the back
26:02Passing out
26:03Extra pass
26:04Fox
26:07Spurs got a good look
26:11At the end of three
26:14105 94
26:16Up 11
26:19Oh step castle
26:21I think I used to do that
26:25No I could make the layups
26:26Way to go step
26:28Castle
26:31Without scoring the kings in every second quarter
26:33But Sacramento's still hanging around 11 point game as we enter
26:37The final frame
26:38It's the taco palenque spurs game day combo
26:40Fuel up for game day with the taco palenque spurs game day combo
26:43Capita burrito chips and queso
26:45And score free spurs cup featuring the coyote
26:48It's game day flavor done right
26:50Only a taco palenque the official fresh mix of the spurs
26:53So
26:55As a coach
26:55You coming into this four quarter
26:57Nice little
26:59Set up here
27:02That's called the hammer play
27:03Way to go
27:04Coach miss johnson
27:05I love it
27:06But maybe that's my old protege
27:08He's telling sweeney
27:09Who's on the stab at that drew there
27:11I'm not sure
27:12Excellent play
27:15As you were saying right
27:16Yeah as you look at this stat sheet
27:18Where where are we vulnerable
27:20Pretty much only at the free throw line
27:22Yeah
27:23The kings are shooting 94 percent from the free throw line
27:2518 for 19 so
27:27Nice move
27:28Norman Yama
27:30Take care of the basketball
27:32And don't foul
27:35Unnecessary
27:37That's the case
27:38Spurs have those 13 turnovers
27:4112 points scored off of them for sacramento
27:44And that bucket breaks up a 12 nothing
27:45San Antonio run
27:48You know how in football you have offense defense special teams
27:51Coming out of that timeout just coming out to start the fourth quarter
27:56To execute a play like that
27:57Very impressive
28:00That's special teams
28:01Special situation
28:03Hey that was run by
28:04By the way that
28:04Dylan harper making that cross-court pass underneath
28:08To de'arren fox
28:09Point guard to point guard
28:11They have to deal
28:12Still in there again with a nice offensive rebound
28:16Monk
28:17Well it's 19 off the bench
28:18Eighth in the nba in bench scoring
28:20Coming into this game tonight
28:24But de'arren responds right back
28:26He's got 16
28:29Almost like a post up there
28:30With his back to the basket against monk
28:33Now we jump back into a little two-three zone here
28:40The kings playing zone most of that first half on defense
28:43cloud in
28:45Cloud his way
28:47And he got fouled
28:50You know AJ when we knew that we had David and Timmy back there
28:54We're just putting our hands up
28:56Right we're not really trying to do too much and go for the block
28:59In that situation you know you got Victor back there
29:03Let those guys offer one up to the big fella
29:06Lead them to them
29:07Yes trap them funnel them funnel funnel funnel that's the correct word
29:10There you go
29:19First free throw good
29:21Second year in the nba out of bowling green
29:25Only player from bowling green currently in the nba
29:30And it's 17 total
29:41It's that one down
29:4313 point game
29:46Victor
30:00That's the second
30:08Foul against harper
30:13That's his second
30:15Cloud and Monk, Clifford out there, Monk missing.
30:18Could have been a mistake, Sean.
30:20Yeah, leaving Monk.
30:21Yeah, exactly.
30:22You dodged in there.
30:25Uh-oh.
30:26Oh, my goodness!
30:29He just did that!
30:31He wrecked it!
30:36How about the fake?
30:38Little left to right.
30:40And as soon as he got cleared,
30:42here he goes.
30:43He got holds up.
30:44He got right.
30:45All I can say is,
30:47Sean, your little grandson,
30:48if he needed to be rocked to sleep tonight,
30:52Wimby can rock him to sleep, baby.
30:56That one might wake him up.
30:59Oh, that is...
31:01And throwing up the hook'em.
31:05Where's the Texas?
31:07In front of a beautiful home crowd.
31:10Wimby gets the ball in the play side.
31:12Where's the help?
31:14Where's the help?
31:15I think these guys made business decisions
31:17and decided to let Wimby go and rock it to sleep.
31:22I would have made the same decision, man.
31:24I'll be honest with you.
31:25A fox pick in the pocket.
31:28And fox flies!
31:31Yes!
31:32Foxes can fly!
31:34Back-to-back dunks.
31:37I'm right mad at all guys.
31:39Largest lead-up, 17.
31:42Largest lead-up, 17.
31:46Marozin.
31:50It is so good to get practicing reps in, which is on.
31:55You'll have that one on video.
31:58And you'll say, hey, this is how we need to guard it
32:00when we see this situation the next time.
32:05K-Penny's driving off.
32:07Harper thought about it, now drives.
32:09Dillon Harper!
32:11Just cocked it back!
32:14How about three dunks in a row?
32:16By Dillon Harper, he went big game hunting again.
32:20Bagged himself a seven-footer.
32:24Clifford missed the three.
32:25Can they get four dunks in a row?
32:31Weminyama fakes the handoff.
32:33Goes to the rim.
32:34Pass out.
32:35Harrison Barnes.
32:36Got his own miss.
32:39Inside, Weminyama steps through.
32:41No look underneath.
32:42It's the all-star game.
32:46Hey, Harrison starts to talk there.
32:48Backwards.
32:51He said probably five years ago.
32:53Yeah.
32:56He's still got something left in the tackle.
32:57He seems to have done something this year.
33:02Shot clock at five.
33:04Raynaud.
33:06Monk.
33:09And foul.
33:13What an incredible shot, Faith.
33:16I really thought Dillon Harper was going to shoot that.
33:18Yeah, yeah.
33:19I'm moving around in the air.
33:21We've seen this.
33:22This is Victor Slack.
33:25Goodness, I just couldn't one-up.
33:32Spurs are 8 of 11 from the field in this quarter.
33:37And they're still looking to push it.
33:38Much better job defending that middle slash cut by Dillon.
33:44Calvin Malone.
33:45Calvin Malone.
33:45Doug Christie has to call a timeout.
33:49Seen this a few times this year, AJ, where our guys can flip the switch, turn it on, show a
33:56lot of focus on focus on the floor.
33:58And we talked about focus.
34:00Nice job here with the strip.
34:03The Aaron Fox playing above the rim.
34:05Glad to be in San Antonio.
34:12Time for some dunks and our Methodist Healthcare Assists.
34:15Oh, Julia Champinney going top shelf in the open court.
34:19Victor rocking the baby to sleep.
34:22Throwing it down.
34:24Dillon Harper collecting a seven-footer.
34:28De'Aaron Fox, an easy throw down for your Methodist Healthcare Assists.
34:33And go ahead, I want to hear the stats.
34:35Well, the Spurs this season are averaging 5.6 dunks per game, tied for a franchise best.
34:41They also did that last year, 5.6.
34:44And, of course, that is since they started tracking those things of the play-by-play era of the 96
34:49-97 season.
34:50You qualify that, please, because, AJ, did we have more than five dunks a game back in the day?
34:56I think we need to find some video evidence to move it.
35:07I was definitely getting a dunk again.
35:11Well, you couldn't count on me and that.
35:16Well, the play-by-play era since the 96-97 tracking data early started that season.
35:26play five three mumbo jumbo Sean gets a little salty with certain things yes he does
35:33because that is old age what's going on
35:4012-2 run for the Spurs 14th turnover that's a travel
35:56earlier hands it over there
36:01how much longer do you put the starters out here for Sean?
36:05that's always a division
36:07you gotta get to the five minute mark
36:10you gotta get to that five minute mark
36:12Wimby again!
36:14it's a dunk contest
36:16they can't stop dunking
36:19he just took the wind out of you
36:25and another thing you're thinking about
36:27during the last game against Phoenix
36:30you can play he didn't overuse anybody because it was a blowout
36:33but now this is the right time to get Wimby
36:36so he finishes his night emphatically
36:39you have Renaud who just loses contact with Victor there stepping out
36:43to help
36:45passes over the top and Victor
36:47with a nice finish to this one
36:4928 points, 15 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 blocks
36:54Lulemon Yama KJ
36:56another corner 3
36:57hook it, he's got 18 points
37:02these wraparound hook passes
37:04have been very impressive to guys
37:06wide open in the corners
37:11and Mitch Johnson calls a timeout
37:14Kelly Olenek and Carter Bowyer headed to the scores table
37:17but they're 5-30 mark
37:18not the five minute exactly
37:20but I think you know what's coming
37:21AJ
37:23maybe making some changes
37:25in the lineup
37:26an excellent timeout
37:27because you also just want
37:29whatever five that's going back on the court
37:32make sure they're focused on what the mission is
37:35take care of the basketball
37:37right now defend the three-point line
37:39you don't want the Kings
37:41you've done a pretty good job defending the three-point line all game
37:44you don't want him to start making threes
37:4813-2 run the last 3-17 for the Spurs
37:52started this game off on an 11-0 run
37:54went up by as many as 15
37:56in a battle back and forth ever since then with the Kings
37:58with the Spurs are pulling away here
38:00in the fourth quarter
38:01they've outscored Sacramento 26-11
38:05trying to finish the job once again
38:10and if we take a look at some Spur vision Sean
38:13just again sharing the basketball AJ
38:16yeah nice little hammer play here
38:18this was all bait excellent
38:20because we're looking to get this back screen
38:22from Harrison Barnes defense was supposed to switch
38:27they didn't switch
38:28Jamar DeRozan
38:30and now Wimby draws a lot of attention
38:33which freed up De'Aaron Fox
38:35beautiful play
38:36beautiful design
38:38Spurs one assist shy of 30
38:4029 assists on 48 made shots
38:4357 percent from the field

39:44he's got a lot more reps this year
39:46and on the fifth side for the Kings
39:48you know we obviously know where they are at this point of the season
39:51but you know these guys that are out here
39:54they're pros and
39:56they're trying to figure out
39:57and the Kings are trying to figure out

42:36you know they were right
42:41I didn't last too long though
42:43pretty soon you were playing 30-25 to 35 minutes

44:59yeah I know A.J.
45:02A.J. is out there with those heavy hitters
45:04what were the team dinners like during that 99 season on the road?
45:09you know A.J. that's a good question
45:12I think that's when we started
45:13yeah
45:14and then they evolved
45:17the best dinners
45:20in my opinion wasn't just after wins
45:22but when you lose a tough game
45:25and you're thinking
45:26well this is the night
45:27that we're not gonna go to dinner
45:29we ended up going to dinner
45:31talk about certain situations
45:33and we were really consistent
45:36and it became a routine
45:37I think we had to start winning championships
45:40before we started
45:41hanging those team dinners on the Spurs
45:44so first you footed the bell
45:46and then you slid and popped the credit card
45:48yeah we had to win a couple first
45:49you know he's the first credit card there Pop
45:51Pop and you know RC and
45:53Pop was really the main catalyst
45:55and now you have everybody in the league
45:58they're trying to emulate that
46:00and you're trying to have team dinners and
46:02have that camaraderie
46:04after wins or losses it doesn't matter
46:06that's one thing that

50:51how is his rhythm Sean
50:52was his rhythm good
50:53like mine on the dance floor
50:56that was outstanding
51:00Well, a great new tradition championed by Victor Wemanyama.
51:07Still Harper fell down and tackled him.
51:11This team really seems connected, guys.
51:15And we go down to Nate Rock who is with the Alien.
51:19Vic, you guys are red hot, eight wins in a row.
51:21But first, I'm surprised we didn't see you in the dunk contest.
51:24You've been working on that double pump.
51:29I mean, I'll be in the dunk contest one day.
51:32Mark that down.
51:33And Vic, talk to me about this experience in Austin.
51:35Obviously, we see the orange shoes, throwing up the hook'em horns.
51:38How cool was it to win two games up here?
51:40It's good to rep the culture here, man.
51:42People get so much love.
51:44It's like our duty to get big wins like this and give them the best show.
51:48Thanks, Vic.
51:48Good luck in Detroit.
51:49We'll see you on Monday night.
51:51JT.
51:53One day in the dunk contest?
51:54You know what?
51:55Were we talking about this the other day?
51:57We did.
51:57We did.
51:57I don't doubt it because that's the type of player he is.
52:01You know, that's why we saw Kobe and Michael and the greats of the game in the dunk contest.
52:06I have no doubt that he's going to be in the dunk contest one day.
52:10I would love to see it.
52:11That's news to Adam Silver, the commissioner of the NBA.
52:17Yep.
52:18That'll go viral.
52:18Victor's maybe going to be in the dunk contest one day, but his Spurs win their 40th game
52:22of the season.
52:23We're back with more after this right here on Ken's five.
52:26The Spurs win.
52:27That's very good man.
52:27Go to Ben.
52:28Go.
52:28Go.
52:29Go to Ben.
