00:00:00...on January 20th against the Spurs, they won that game, that game was on NBC, so Houston fans, we've given
00:00:07you something to look forward to in the second half, before it starts, here's Ashley.
00:00:12Guys, I was able to talk to Houston assistant coach Royale Ivy and he said, look, they're making their runs,
00:00:17they're playing more physical though, we have to match that physicality.
00:00:20He said, we also have to really contain them, contain the ball and focus on our turnovers, that's been the
00:00:25biggest thing for them this first half, he said, look, we obviously have a lot of focus on Wemby,
00:00:28but their role players are making shots, we're going to keep locking in on him and just hope the chips
00:00:33fall where they may, when it comes to those other seven guys, that are scored in double figures, as they
00:00:37average that.
00:00:38That is what the Spurs do, they come at you in waves, they have two of those players, Harper and
00:00:43Johnson, off the bench, give them 29 points.
00:00:46Shen Goon, quiet, second quarter, quick, eluding Wemby Nama for the basket there.
00:00:55Spurs bring back the same five that struck the game.
00:00:58The 46 and 17 spurs, just one loss in February at the start of March, one loss in the last
00:01:06five weeks.
00:01:08Slip, an awkward slip by Castle, grimacing as he gets back up, Eason drives the other way, Vassell in the
00:01:15block, taken back away from Wemby Nama, but out of bounds, was Tari Eason.
00:01:20Scary fall there by Castle.
00:01:24I don't know if he slipped here.
00:01:26Yeah.
00:01:26Yeah, right there, almost hyperextending that left leg, and here's the block by Vassell.
00:01:32It's just not Wemby.
00:01:34This team, averaging about seven blocks a game.
00:01:40Talking about the Rockets and their defense, Spurs good as Reynolds seven, the points allowed for the defensive cue goal
00:01:46percentage.
00:01:46And third for defensive efficiency is Vassell.
00:01:51And that's fouled shooting the three.
00:01:53And this is the second time that Vassell has been fouled on a three-point opportunity.
00:01:58He is, see, as Tari Eason tries to contest right there, he just pushes the body.
00:02:09But it's Eason that was pushing Gassell into Gassell.
00:02:19One more look at that.
00:02:22Yeah, Eason pushed, well, did he really push, though?
00:02:26Yeah, not really.
00:02:28Not really.
00:02:30Hey, you got me three free throws, I hope.
00:02:32It's my pleasure.
00:02:35A little conversation at the table, making sure that the right number of free throws are happening here.
00:02:42Everybody's satisfied that it's straightened out.
00:02:45You know, you're looking for Vassell at the line, and Reggie's the second-longest tenured Spur.
00:02:49Has not appeared in the playoffs, and you kind of came from San Antonio.
00:02:54You felt like you were automatically going to be in the playoffs.
00:02:57That unbelievable run that they had of consecutive playoffs, 22 seasons.
00:03:01Of course, so much of that under the great Greg Popovich.
00:03:04Then Mitch Johnson, after Pop's health issues, taking over the first ten games of last year.
00:03:12And now, Mitch Johnson, at age 39, in charge of this San Antonio team.
00:03:20Mike, that's when the real questions are going to start to surface about this Spurs team.
00:03:26Let's tell them playoff time and the lack of experience.
00:03:31Off the miss, chase down.
00:03:33Good to push.
00:03:33Michelle's got Champagny to Wemby.
00:03:36Good pass, Champagny.
00:03:41Champagny!
00:03:41Yeah, good pass there by Wemby.
00:03:44His first assist, finding Champagny.
00:03:47His first three of the evening.
00:03:49His fundamentals are so solid.
00:03:51You just appreciate it.
00:03:53Night-night-night on Topson News off.
00:03:55Trying to push through Wemby off and again.
00:03:57Spurridge has some numbers here if they can organize.
00:03:59Wemby going to the basket.
00:04:00Easton riding him away, and that's how it's called.
00:04:09There you go.
00:04:10Little no look.
00:04:12Right on point into his shooting pocket.
00:04:16Look at this.
00:04:17One step, follow through.
00:04:20Splash.
00:04:2715 points, six rebounds, a couple of blocks.
00:04:30For Wemby Yama, in addition to that assist you just saw.
00:04:38As mentioned, Phoenix is hosting Charlotte.
00:04:41Starting in about 25 minutes.
00:04:43And that game available for you on Peacock.
00:04:45Kevin Ray, Jamal Crawford, Jordan Cornette with that.
00:04:47Tomorrow, what a great Peacock doublehead.
00:04:49Denver and Oklahoma City.
00:04:51And then the Knicks and the Clippers.
00:04:55More on these games.
00:04:57Go to NBA.com or visit the NBA app.
00:05:00That Nuggets Thunder game will be an on-the-bench game.
00:05:04Two analysts on the bench.
00:05:05So, look forward to that treatment of a very good game between the 1 and, for the moment, the 5
00:05:11in the West.
00:05:12But Tuesday night, we're right back here for the Celtics and the Spurs.
00:05:17And shout out, Jason Taylor.
00:05:19Great to watch him come back.
00:05:20Wow.
00:05:21Friday and then again today.
00:05:23Durant coming baseline.
00:05:25At that time, Shen Goon trying to keep it alive.
00:05:28Last touch, KD.
00:05:31I don't know if there's a nitpick about this Rockets offense.
00:05:35It's because they've become one-dimensional at times when they rely too heavily on KD.
00:05:44Champagny stops on the dime.
00:05:46It's a 9-0 run for the Spurs.
00:05:53The starting five.
00:05:54Very effective.
00:05:55They work very well for San Antonio.
00:05:57They've played a lot.
00:05:58Nine times, or nine different lineups, I should say, this season for San Antonio for starters.
00:06:05But Thompson ends the run.
00:06:07Oh, my goodness.
00:06:09The C's part hard-filed Thompson.
00:06:11Castle going in the basket.
00:06:15He seems to be okay as he gets back up.
00:06:18And now it'll be a three-man conversation amongst the officials to see if this garners a further look.
00:06:25It's a good foul.
00:06:28That's all it is.
00:06:29That's all it is.
00:06:30Relax, people.
00:06:31It's a good, hard foul.
00:06:35Oh, my goodness.
00:06:37I like there's no discussion going over to the monitor.
00:06:42I think the officials are getting ready for playoff basketball as well.
00:07:14The Generation Insulted.
00:07:15They work on their outside shot.
00:07:17They're capable of making it.
00:07:18Don't get me wrong.
00:07:19But it can become better.
00:07:22Both of the great rebounders, facilitators.
00:07:28Can guys like that, Reed Shepard, to the game, can guys like that, Rich, develop into good shooters?
00:07:33Absolutely.
00:07:33Serviceable shooters, as I call it.
00:07:36KD doubles again.
00:07:37Thompson, Smith, Flatsons.
00:07:39Everything's fun to make.
00:07:40The execution was good.
00:07:42Wemby back the other way.
00:07:43Full gala, basket, basket.
00:07:45What the fuck, Yabba?
00:07:46Get out of here!
00:07:48Oh, my goodness!
00:07:51Paul Reed Shepard.
00:07:53His eyes got so big when he was the last line of defense with Victor coming right at him.
00:08:02This is not fair.
00:08:04Look at Shepard.
00:08:05He's like, what do you want me to do?
00:08:09Wow.
00:08:11It's an experience, people, and you have got to get your tickets.
00:08:16It's must-viewing when you're watching this young man.
00:08:257-4, doing that stuff.
00:08:2814-4 here for the Spurs.
00:08:31Look at this.
00:08:32Start this quarter.
00:08:32Back of the hands of Wemby.
00:08:34Head up like a point guard.
00:08:36Give it champagne.
00:08:38Back to Wemby, guarded by the guy he grew up idolizing, KD.
00:08:43Vince Thompson switches on him.
00:08:44One on one.
00:08:45Too much.
00:08:47Too much!
00:08:53In the blink of an eye, it is a 24-point lead Thompson.
00:08:58One of the top dunkers in the league.
00:09:0130%.
00:09:0236% of his points are actually dunked.
00:09:07Here's Fox going at Shepard.
00:09:09Quarter pitch.
00:09:12It's just an onslaught.
00:09:14Pass on the three.
00:09:19And here they come.
00:09:20Get the ball out of KD.
00:09:21Someone else is going to have to make shots.
00:09:24They really have a turnover.
00:09:26Thompson will keep it alive.
00:09:27See how slow the orange box blows out to Thompson.
00:09:31And now you can just play one-on-one defense here.
00:09:33And they'll live with that.
00:09:35Two points.
00:09:37And you get the ball out of KD's hands.
00:09:39You'll live with them.
00:09:40You can play single coverage everywhere else.
00:09:43That's the luxury of having Wimbanyama on the floor here.
00:09:48Going towards the basket.
00:09:49Bumped by Durant.
00:09:50Foul called.
00:09:53Wimbanyama bumps knees.
00:09:56In transition, you've got a seven-foot-four split.
00:09:59And look at all the black jerseys.
00:10:01Four black jerseys.
00:10:04I see Fox.
00:10:06I was looking at him.
00:10:07I contacted him.
00:10:08He was like biting his bottom lip.
00:10:09And then this was coming back the other way.
00:10:12Outstanding.
00:10:15Outstanding.
00:10:26Missed that one.
00:10:27The MVP chance will be here for years to come, health-willing, for Wimbanyama.
00:10:36And we'll be in the conversation this year.
00:10:38The ballot is very interesting.
00:10:39Yes.
00:10:40We get to the final 20 games of the season.
00:10:44And for awards, you have to reach that 65-game threshold.
00:10:47Missing the 14 games early on, plus some others.
00:10:50The left half injury.
00:10:51There's four to play with.
00:10:53There's a guy who's been an MVP and a Rookie of the Year and a two-time finalist.
00:10:57Eight-time ball defense.
00:11:00Ten-time ball NBA.
00:11:02The Adler, David Robinson, foul on Castle.
00:11:07For all the jostling with a frustrated Kevin Durant.
00:11:13David Robinson.
00:11:15My draft, 1987.
00:11:17Overall number one.
00:11:20And also has Scottie Pippen, Mark Jackson, Dennis Hobson.
00:11:27Derrick McKee.
00:11:31Big Goon.
00:11:32Another steal on Wimby.
00:11:34Four on one.
00:11:38So not only is he scoring, not only is he blocking shots, the steal, the rebound.
00:11:45He's present and his fingerprints all over this game here.
00:11:50He's got a couple of steals.
00:11:51They've given Shepard no space to shoot.
00:11:53And three and two in the first half.
00:11:56To Durant.
00:11:58His feet.
00:11:59Thompson.
00:11:59Shepard outside.
00:12:00Michelle the quick close.
00:12:01Shepard inside.
00:12:02Over Wimby.
00:12:03Yama.
00:12:04Nice play.
00:12:04Reed Shepard.
00:12:05Way to get him back, Reed.
00:12:07You got me in transition that line.
00:12:09And I'm going to do a teardrop over you, big fella.
00:12:13So.
00:12:15Pretteling his way around Shen Goon.
00:12:20Lead up to 26.
00:12:21Largest of the night again.
00:12:23Everyone stay home.
00:12:25I've got this.
00:12:28Wimby Yama holding Shen Goon will be called for the foul.
00:12:32We step out.
00:12:33For the second straight quarter, the Spurs have started 7 of 7 from the field.
00:12:39Once again, Ashley Chalmody.
00:12:42Thanks, Mike.
00:12:42Well, being in San Antonio, you cannot help but think about the legend, the culture of this organization.
00:12:48There is a reason that the Coach Pop coaching tree is so big.
00:12:51Both head coaches tonight.
00:12:52Ime Yudoka and Mitch Johnson are on that tree.
00:12:55Mitch saying Ime has always been such a great reference and sounding board for him in his coaching journey.
00:12:59He was always a little bit of a step behind him growing up and coming into this coaching world.
00:13:04As you can imagine, though, these two are super competitive.
00:13:06So, it's not all fun and games when they think back to their time coaching together.
00:13:10Tennis was the sport of choice.
00:13:12And, boy, did things get competitive.
00:13:13Ime telling me he and Mitch would go for hours on the court in a 100-degree weather.
00:13:18He also said he never lost.
00:13:20Mitch said, though, in Ime's mind, he never lost.
00:13:22So, there might be a difference of opinion there with those two guys.
00:13:25But it looks like maybe these teams might have a chance to meet in the postseason.
00:13:29So, guys, maybe we'll get to the bottom of it at that point.
00:13:31They just might have to play together.
00:13:33Kevin Durant tried to bring that house down and may have hurt himself along the way as he ran into
00:13:39Luke Cornette.
00:13:40Yeah, he took a shot from Cornette.
00:13:43Wow.
00:13:45That was all Kevin's frustration to getting doubled here throughout the night.
00:13:49Look at this.
00:13:52Oh, right there across the face.
00:13:59The antithesis of a gentlemanly game of tennis.
00:14:03There's got to be game film somewhere.
00:14:05We've got to get to the bottom of this.
00:14:07That plane, tell them planes.
00:14:09There's got to be some type of footage.
00:14:11And, you know, we talk about the pop of this tree.
00:14:14Let's talk about where the tree originated from.
00:14:17And that's Larry Brown.
00:14:18Larry Brown was the architect who brought in Ray Popovich, which really started this whole coaching tree as well.
00:14:27So, we've got to give shout-outs to Larry Brown as well.
00:14:31Larry is at Kansas.
00:14:32Popovich ties there.
00:14:33R.C. Buford as well.
00:14:36The CEO now of this Spurs organization.
00:14:39Part of that group when they were there was Mark Pridinger.
00:14:44He was a scout for a long time, then was with Wake Forest, working as the analyst on Wake Forest
00:14:50broadcast with Stan Cotton for some 35 years.
00:14:53He passed away this morning.
00:14:55Rick Popovich releasing a quote as a match.
00:14:58Storyteller, excellent scouting, played a significant role in the Spurs' success over the years.
00:15:04And pops in the entire Spurs' organization thinking of Mark Pridinger and his family with his passing today.
00:15:13I'm going to go with a moment of silence before the game.
00:15:16And three from Castle gets in to 22.
00:15:19Takes the lead to 27.
00:15:21Largest of the night.
00:15:24Back to Durant.
00:15:25He's got a little step here.
00:15:27Inside the dotted circle gets a chance for the three-point play.
00:15:31As Kevin Durant has taken a lot of physical play here tonight.
00:15:35But keeps coming as per usual.
00:15:38I like what Mitch Johnson said.
00:15:40Look, you know, we've been down this road before.
00:15:42We had a very physical game against a physical team.
00:15:45In terms of Detroit the other night.
00:15:48Back to back.
00:15:49The Clippers tried to play them physical.
00:15:51We don't play physical.
00:15:53We like to play with contact.
00:15:55We don't play physical.
00:15:56But we need to get up and be and have our hands on the opposing team.
00:16:02So they like to play with contact as opposed to playing with physicality.
00:16:0816 for Durant.
00:16:10Good aggressive defense from Houston here now.
00:16:13He's going to get the ball out of Harper's hands at the top.
00:16:15But Benyama out in this stretch.
00:16:17Hilton Johnson.
00:16:21That's the first miss in the quarter.
00:16:23After the Spurs open.
00:16:24Eight for eight.
00:16:26Ben Thompson.
00:16:29Right at Harper.
00:16:30Good spin to the basket.
00:16:31He'll come to the free throw line.
00:16:33You like the timeout after they're getting blown out in this stretch to start the third.
00:16:37Imi Udoka pointed physicality to the Rockets.
00:16:40They brought it the last four trips.
00:16:43And they're not settling for jump shots.
00:16:45Putting their head down and taking the ball all the way to the cup.
00:16:50KD and now I'm in Thompson.
00:16:55KD, I think the top of the season with David Robinson.
00:16:57Yeah.
00:16:58Over there to our left.
00:16:59This is before the game, by the way.
00:17:01So the physicality.
00:17:02The Spurs performance team getting Wimpy ready.
00:17:07I like it.
00:17:08I like it.
00:17:10Expect to see this and feel this in the game.
00:17:14Yeah, I love it.
00:17:15I love it.
00:17:16Two times these free throws are happening.
00:17:18That ball's out of bounds.
00:17:19Kevin Durant was down here at the opposite end.
00:17:21In full conversation with David Robinson as Wimpy goes to the back to keep himself prepared.
00:17:26You know, he hasn't worked enough here, so.
00:17:30Give you a little app evening in in between runs on the floor.
00:17:52And that's another thing for such a young man who received Victor.
00:17:57Talk about taking care of his body in terms of stretching.
00:18:01He has a routine that he goes through.
00:18:03Drew, very flexible.
00:18:06There's a juggler.
00:18:08Look on his hand-eye coordination.
00:18:14One more coming for Smith.
00:18:16Today is International Women's Day.
00:18:18Join the NBA and WNBA family in celebrating by empowering girls to learn and grow beyond the game
00:18:24through the Junior WNBA.
00:18:26Learn more at JuniorWNBA.com.
00:18:30Shout out to all the women's basketball teams.
00:18:33Didn't accept for March Madness.
00:18:35There are many conference championships decided this weekend.
00:18:42Congratulations to my UCLA women and boys who handle their business.
00:18:48Can I look at the table?
00:18:49Do I get an assist for that?
00:18:51Do I get an assist for that?
00:18:52Yes, you do.
00:18:53Baby and I were pretty, pretty handily.
00:18:55Pretty handily, yeah.
00:18:56In the Big Ten women's tournament earlier today.
00:18:58So great.
00:18:59So great.
00:19:00So much good basketball right now.
00:19:02Senior National Women's Day.
00:19:04Proud Huntskrieg and father of two terrific point guards in my life.
00:19:08He continues to run the show on a regular basis.
00:19:11Johnson hits the three from the top.
00:19:14And the Spurs hit 99 now.
00:19:1899-75.
00:19:2013 of 27 from downtown.
00:19:23Forty-eight percent if they continue to take the ball out of KD's hand.
00:19:27And Shen Goon attacks.
00:19:28It's four on three.
00:19:30And Durant's got, he's got all these points.
00:19:32He's got 32,000 and change.
00:19:36So you're going to dump me a cloud.
00:19:38Let's go four on three on the other end.
00:19:44Johnson the body on Shen Goon, the finish at two.
00:19:48But what we're seeing defensively by San Antonio,
00:19:52I think this could be a blueprint going forward for other teams on how to play KD
00:19:57in terms of trying to get the ball out of his hand.
00:20:01Shen Goon gave a little straight, dribbled into three, and he knocked it down.
00:20:05101-80.
00:20:06Miss Johnson is hot with Luke Cornett right now because he was supposed to come up
00:20:10and take the ball out of his hand.
00:20:17It's interesting you point that out.
00:20:19Who think he's inside?
00:20:20Because will it be then Thompson or Shepard handling the ball, bringing it up?
00:20:24So Durant does not lose ball foul in the Spurs.
00:20:27And Shane Goon's knocked down.
00:20:29And three-three man, don't you want to see this so you can figure out
00:20:32what's our chess moves in return?
00:20:34It was the foul and the throw down by Cornett.
00:20:38And, you know, Ime Iduka, he's been around the block,
00:20:41been to the finals as a coach with the Boston Celtics.
00:20:44He's seen just about everything.
00:20:46They'll make adjustments.
00:20:47But to me, it will come down to the Rockets being able to make plays.
00:20:52And, again, with the injuries, not even playing all season,
00:20:56Fred Van Vliet before general, and then losing Steven Adams,
00:21:01the offensive rebounder extraordinaire.
00:21:04We're going to have to make plays on that back end.
00:21:10The foul on Cornett, his fourth, in ten minutes of action.
00:21:22Fred Van Vliet, the second Turkish player to be an all-star.
00:21:29Mehmet Okur, the other one.
00:21:33One-oh-one-82.
00:21:35Spurs trying to get to 47-17, running for 30 games over 500.
00:21:41Not a lot of folks thinking that was going to be what this good year for San Antonio is going
00:21:47to look like,
00:21:47especially in the early entry to Webbing Yama.
00:21:49But De'Aaron Fox is continuing to step into that role when Wendy's out.
00:21:54It's Fox time.
00:21:58Thompson, swooping through for the basket.
00:22:03Nice game for Thompson, 15 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists.
00:22:09Fox again, Cornette.
00:22:11Oh!
00:22:12He's finished!
00:22:17He's finished!
00:22:18He's got a blocking foul call on De'Aaron Fox.
00:22:20Free through is coming, Foreman Johnson!
00:22:23Luke Cornett, are you kidding me?
00:22:27De'Aaron Fox here, quick as a fox.
00:22:30Gets all the way to the cuff with a beautiful reverse.
00:22:34And then Foxy showing sharing is carrying Cornette with a beautiful left-hand finish.
00:22:40He wimbyed him!

00:51:00teammates
00:51:01during his
00:51:0318-year
00:51:04NBA career.
00:51:07Champion
00:51:08Jeff Green.
00:51:09You gotta say that
00:51:10in front of him.
00:51:10NBA champion
00:51:12Jeff Green.
00:51:15The threes
00:51:16continue to rain down
00:51:17for the Spurs.
00:51:18That's their 18th
00:51:19and shooting nearly
00:51:2050% from deep
00:51:21on the night.
00:51:24Holiday to drive here.
00:51:27Green's got it.
00:51:28I did ask you
00:51:29if you knew
00:51:29how many teammates
00:51:30you had
00:51:30during your playing days.
00:51:32The number I gave
00:51:33was 115
00:51:34and I
00:51:34wasn't too far off.
00:51:36It was very close.
00:51:36There is the number
00:51:37for Green, 272.
00:51:39Wow.
00:51:39Garrett Temple
00:51:40and Vince
00:51:41tied 261
00:51:43and Trevor Ariza
00:51:45and LeBron.
00:51:46Now,
00:51:47as Green
00:51:48turns around
00:51:48and knocks down
00:51:49the jumper.
00:51:50Of note,
00:51:52you had 99
00:51:52different teammates
00:51:53which speaks a bit
00:51:55to the era
00:51:55and being
00:51:56in Indianapolis
00:51:57in the whole career.
00:51:58That helped.
00:51:5918 years
00:52:00in one place
00:52:01helped.
00:52:02Now,
00:52:02for how Jamal
00:52:03was here,
00:52:05it would be
00:52:06a different story.
00:52:07Jamal Crawford
00:52:07had 215
00:52:09different teammates.
00:52:12Three for Kelly Olynyk.
00:52:1719 May 3.
00:52:20And the most points
00:52:21Houston has allowed
00:52:22out all season.
00:52:24139.
00:52:26They did it.
00:52:27They had it both too,
00:52:28though, I could say,
00:52:29in Denver
00:52:30and by Sacramento.
00:52:32Denver early,
00:52:33Sacramento
00:52:33about three weeks ago.
00:52:36And that
00:52:36is the most they've given up.
00:52:38Jordan McLaughlin.
00:52:40And 23.
00:52:43Jordan County.
00:52:44Jordan spoke three
00:52:45on the season.
00:52:49on the season.
00:52:50they fouled.
00:52:52Basket counts.
00:52:53Gamble with the foul.
00:52:57And here was Vince
00:52:58earlier.
00:52:59Okay,
00:52:59way to represent.
00:53:02This is OG
00:53:03versus
00:53:04O-O-O-G.
00:53:06It's Vince Garter.
00:53:08That's straight off
00:53:09a very stressful
00:53:09halftime segment.
00:53:11Trying to fight
00:53:12for space with
00:53:13what?
00:53:15Talking to millions
00:53:16of people,
00:53:17breaking down the game.
00:53:18You're right.
00:53:18Fighting for time
00:53:19with Bello and T-Mac.
00:53:20You know,
00:53:21taking the assist
00:53:21from Maria.
00:53:22He comes out there.
00:53:23He just rips
00:53:24corner threes
00:53:24in it.
00:53:25And a tie.
00:53:26And a tie.
00:53:26Yeah.
00:53:27Ice cold.
00:53:27Very impressive,
00:53:29Vince.
00:53:30When you
00:53:30back to Bryant,
00:53:32this is unbelievable
00:53:33in Spurs' delay.
00:53:3421 of 40.
00:53:36Most points
00:53:37in a game
00:53:37for the Spurs
00:53:38this year
00:53:39as they have
00:53:40extended to a
00:53:4130-point advantage.
00:53:43That's finished
00:53:44by Aaron Carter.
00:53:46And again,
00:53:46sending a message.
00:53:48We may see you
00:53:50in the second round.
00:53:51Not trying to give
00:53:52them any life
00:53:53to this Rocket team.

00:54:07with the way
00:54:07the Spurs are playing,
00:54:08the way the Celtics

00:54:11Kobe on the miss.
00:54:12Boston has Jason Tatum
00:54:14back in the lineup
00:54:14after 298 days away
00:54:17with the Achilles surgery.
00:54:21Appreciative hands
00:54:22from these terrific fans
00:54:23in San Antonio.
00:54:25One of the best nights
00:54:26of the year
00:54:27for the Spurs.
00:54:30This dominant second half
00:54:31against a really good team.
00:54:43Wimbanyama 29 and 8.
00:54:47Leading six Spurs
00:54:49in double figures.
00:54:50That three goes down.
00:54:52The final number
00:54:53will be 145-120.
00:54:55the former tennis buddies
00:54:57of their San Antonio days.
00:55:00Exchange greetings.
00:55:01Mitch Johnson
00:55:02and Ibe Udoka
00:55:03and they very well
00:55:04could see each other
00:55:06in the playoffs.
00:55:10Took the ball
00:55:11out of Durant's hands.
00:55:12KD still had 23,
00:55:13five forwards
00:55:13and four assists.
00:55:16But Wimby and company
00:55:17looks spectacular
00:55:19on this night
00:55:19as the Spurs
00:55:21keep their run going.
00:55:22They have now won
00:55:2315 of their last
00:55:2516 games.
00:55:27I love how there was
00:55:29a total team effort.
00:55:31Four of the five starters
00:55:32in double figures.
00:55:33Obviously,
00:55:34led by
00:55:35Victor Wimbanyama
00:55:36is 29.
00:55:37But how about
00:55:38Harper off the bench?

00:56:46and tonight you guys
00:56:47scored and defended
00:56:48in multiple ways
00:56:49all over the court.
00:56:50How was this game
00:56:51truly won?
00:56:53It was fun.
00:56:54I mean, teams have
00:56:56a hard time figuring
00:56:57this out.
00:56:58Everybody can hear
00:56:59shots from everyone
00:57:00on the court,
00:57:01so we have answers
00:57:02for anybody.
00:57:03It's just so much fun.
00:57:04You guys have eight guys
00:57:05that average double figures.
00:57:07Tonight you had six guys
00:57:08that scored double figures.
00:57:09I mean, truly,
00:57:11can you talk about
00:57:11the chemistry,
00:57:12the connection,
00:57:13just knowing you can
00:57:14pass it to just about
00:57:15any teammate
00:57:15and they're going to
00:57:16help get you a bucket?
00:57:18Yeah, it's all momentum,
00:57:19you know.
00:57:20We got guys shooting
00:57:21with confidence.
00:57:22It's just beautiful to see.
00:57:23Just two examples
00:57:24of Devin and Julian
00:57:25seeing that, like,
00:57:26we can get put that shit up.
00:57:29Sorry.
00:57:29I know I can run back
00:57:30on defense.
00:57:32I got to ask about you,
00:57:33though.
00:57:33You had a turn around slam
00:57:35with three defenders on you
00:57:37in the third quarter
00:57:37and then you went back down
00:57:38and scored a one-handed shot.
00:57:40Does it ever surprise you
00:57:42what you can do?
00:57:44Yeah, I wasn't expecting
00:57:45to palm the ball
00:57:46on that one-handed shot,
00:57:48but it's just,
00:57:49I'm just fist-outing sometimes.
00:57:51That would be awesome.
00:57:51Thank you so much.
00:57:52Congrats on the win.
00:57:53Thank you.
00:57:53Thank you.
00:57:54Thank you, Ashley.
00:57:55We'll see you Tuesday night
00:57:56right back here.
00:57:57We had to see Wemby again.
00:57:58I love his answer.
00:57:59It's kind of honest.
00:58:00He didn't want to say yes.
00:58:01Sometimes I do think
00:58:01it's surprising
00:58:02because there are, right?
00:58:04According to the Suns,

00:58:34McDonald's.
00:58:37On a night
00:58:38when they wanted
00:58:38to show out,
00:58:39the second-best team
00:58:40in the West
00:58:40did exactly that
00:58:41on the offensive end.
00:58:42That was a wow,
00:58:43Wemby moment right there.
00:58:44The reverse through the lane
00:58:45with the foul,
00:58:46145 to 120.
00:58:47That's the most points
00:58:48they've put up
00:58:48all season long.
00:58:50And here are the standings
00:58:51as they sit right now.
00:58:53Just two and a half games
00:58:54behind the Thunder.
00:58:56The Rockets dropped
00:58:57down to third place.
00:58:58Remember,
00:58:58they entered in Sunday
00:58:59or fourth place.
00:59:00They entered in Sunday
00:59:01in third place
00:59:02above the Timberwolves.
00:59:03And here we are.
00:59:04That three through seven is...
00:59:05We talked about it
00:59:06when we came into it.
00:59:08Three through six
00:59:08when we started on Sunday
00:59:09separated by a game and a half.
00:59:11It's about to get nice
00:59:12and nasty
00:59:13through the last 20 games
00:59:14of the regular season.
00:59:16Welcome back,
00:59:16Courtside.
00:59:17Maria Taylor,
00:59:17the Hall of Famers,
00:59:18Melo, VC,
00:59:19and T-Mac here with you.
00:59:20I feel like the only thing
00:59:21we need to be talking about
00:59:22are the Spurs,
00:59:23the statement that they made
00:59:24here tonight
00:59:24against the Rockets.
00:59:26Four guys with 20 points.
00:59:29Talk about ball movement.
00:59:30Yes, that's fine.
00:59:31But they have four guys
00:59:32who scored 20 points.
00:59:33I think six guys
00:59:34in double figures.
00:59:35I mean,
00:59:35that's sharing the ball.
00:59:36That's sharing the well.
00:59:37They're going to be a tough out
00:59:38just for the simple fact of
00:59:40if you play this way now,
00:59:41you don't have to figure it out
00:59:42in the playoffs
00:59:43because, yes,
00:59:43you can always play through Wemby.
00:59:45But you see,
00:59:45they're trying to be physical
00:59:46with Wemby.
00:59:47Share the ball,
00:59:47share the ball.
00:59:48You hit threes.
00:59:49How do you stop this team?
00:59:50They look like they're
00:59:51in rare form right now.
00:59:52It's going to be
00:59:53a difficult outing
00:59:54to stop these guys
00:59:56on the offensive end
00:59:57because you don't know
00:59:58where it's coming from.
00:59:59Right?
00:59:59They have so many
