12:19trying

12:22and he got fouled
12:25he looked like he was gonna go in there and try to throw it down right
12:28he did that was like the Dennis Jenkins dunk against the
12:30the Pistons at the home game a couple weeks ago where he just elevated didn't dunk it but
12:36he saw him in slow
12:37oh yeah that was nutty
12:38that was
12:41small getting his eighth career start to
12:42tonight been dealing with some low back soreness but in the lineup to a contract
12:4936th game
12:51I thought low back soreness was reserved for big guys
12:57not for little guys
12:58well
12:59that's what the Aaron is listed with tonight
13:01oh low back tightness
13:03okay
13:03okay well then it's legit
13:05but Javon small has
13:06low back soreness
13:08whoa
13:08Devin
13:09damn dirty
13:11again
13:13even Steph Castle's last
13:14laughing about that one
13:16boy he just curled so tightly up that screen
13:18last time he was a little wide
13:20had to lay the ball up
13:21this time he's tighter on that curl
13:23he gets all the way the basket for a big dunk
13:28they can't stop dunking
13:30they can't stop dunking
13:32Jerro
13:33off on the three
13:35lemonyama
13:35his 13th rebound
13:37two
13:40counten
13:43then
13:43penney fires
13:45then roll it in
13:50small
13:50takes the three
13:51try to win it inside
13:52got attack on the ricochet
13:59Burton trying to split the fenders and women Yama came over and says nope for his six rejection
14:05Pennant Castle that will just have a little bit too much heat on it
14:10Now a two-on-one three-on-one here small got the reverse timeout spurs
14:17Every time down the floor San Antonio
14:21Is showing off their stuff
14:26Devin Vassell tighter curls that time and you see the result I mean that
14:32Was with authority
14:38Inside the game let's take a look at Devin Vassell and his almost dunk and then his dunk
14:43So the first one he's going to come off more at this angle then when he catches the ball
14:47It's more of this type of angle to the basket so he doesn't get close enough
14:53Realizes he's got the lane, but he's a little too far out there. He's got to lay the ball up
14:57So the second time now he gets a higher screen here, but watch when he comes off. He doesn't come
15:02wide
15:02He makes it really tight that little cut and gets all the way to the basket comes right off Victor
15:09there
15:10Right down the middle for a big-time dunk and that's your HEB inside the game
15:14That's something that Dylan probably knows. All right. I was a little short the first time
15:18I'm gonna fix it next time. No, he he came off and he looked like the first one like he
15:22was gonna shoot a jumper like right there
15:23And realize he had the lane open second time. He came off that high screen from Victor and just annihilates
15:29the rim
15:30Poked out of bounds popped up
15:32Nine shots here this third quarter
15:36five of them
15:37Have been dunks. Yeah, I'll take it
15:40Nothing wrong with it. Give the fans their money's worth
15:4434 to 16 points in the paint advantage
15:47For the Spurs 10th of the NBA and points in the paint all season long. They've been excellent to row
15:53Going in on Plumlee and a foul
16:03John Jero, rookie out of Houston, New Orleans native
16:08To the free throw line his 17th career
16:12NBA game spent one season at the zoo UMass and then three years of Houston
16:19So we call you master zoo called the zoo. Yeah
16:22Well, why is that a wonder
16:25Zoo mass a lot of partying up there. Oh, oh
16:28Sure, you never put I didn't go to that school. So
16:32You're right. I did not partake isn't Suffolk pretty close. No UMass is in Springfield. No a little ways. Okay
16:40Not worth the drive for you
16:42But I don't think there was fun
16:47Barnes quick fire three got it Harrison Barnes
16:51How about the catch? I mean, that's a difficult catcher the ball was hot coming in there kit everything catches
16:57it above his head
16:58Didn't have a lot of time to reload there
17:02Your road puts it in
17:09See this first do a good job of adjusting
17:11From this corner threes Victor keeps it high Harrison Barnes keeps it. I castle sticks the midi. Oh boy. That
17:17was fancy
17:19Razzle dazzle behind the back
17:20He'll step back look that did range jumper look at action from steps
17:30Being told the Thunder down 14
17:33Against the Celtics right now with six minutes remaining
17:38Castle drives in
17:41Boy, I mean
17:43He heard the whistle you could see he's focusing on there. I just was maybe a little too high
17:49This version three games behind Oklahoma City as it stands now so with the loss and a Spurs win of
17:54course that goes to
17:55to
17:57Everything holds ten games remaining you pretty much have to win out
18:02You really do hard to make up three games
18:07In ten games and the next
18:09This is almost impossible, but it's been done
18:20Castle 15 points in 25 minutes missed only two shots
18:24Eight assists eight of the 25 the Spurs have 25 assists from 31 made shots
18:30They leave the NBA in assists per game since the all-star break at 30.8
18:36Plumbly offensive rebound killed him with a full head of steam. He lays it up and in was pretty killed
18:41in a
18:42Lot of power and just
18:45Finesse right when he gets to the rim
18:49Play junior the handoff to row
18:54Row has shot 13 times tonight the same as Victor
19:00Somebody's gonna put the ball in the basket for the Grizzlies
19:03Somebody has to shoot it. Devon's been shooting it that continues seven of ten from the field
19:10He's got 19 points. He's our leading scorer. He's
19:14Was that say about the game tonight? It's been so spectacular
19:18Overlook a really fine performance from Devon
19:25This is one of the most remember memorable games
19:29Last couple seasons for San Antonio. I agree. Is that safe for me to say? Yeah for sure
19:34I know I've only been here a year and a half two years, but
19:39In my time in your time
19:42In my lengthy time sitting next to you every no, I mean yeah, I mean for me it is for
19:46sure
19:48right good
19:50Start was a lazy
19:56Just a delay game here or they're not letting Harper check in. That's what it is
20:07Victor back on the floor though
20:15Keldon inside got his own miss William Keldon put it up
20:19Yeah, held on the left hand you listen
20:25And it's a 30-point lead got two guys around him does not matter to Keldon still beat everybody's new
20:31the offensive glass
20:33Largest lead of the game for the Spurs
20:36Keldon leaking out
20:37Keldon hot big dunk
20:39Added to the list
20:41Dunk City
20:45Let me see. I'm looking at everybody coming off the floor. Oh Dylan Harper doesn't have a dunk
20:50Not yet
20:51Checked in yet, so
20:54I'm looking at you
20:54I'm looking at you
20:58Keldon all smiles
21:00He's on the list
21:01He said forget about those layups
21:04I
21:05Need to join the dunking crowd
21:06Now the third quarter join us for native American heritage night a home
21:11Sacred like me at the Frostbank Center Monday April 6th at 7 p.m. Is this first take on the
21:1776ers get your tickets now at spurs.com
21:20Slash tickets of course Lindy representing
21:23The Cherokee Nation and the Kiowa tribe
21:27Jeff Mcdonald did a great story on him earlier in the season in the Express News and
21:33Lindy talked about what it means to be native and his native name is Powell which means three
21:39In his native language, he's got a lot of tattoos
21:43On his body with Native American symbols and eagle feather portrait of his grandfather Olympic great
21:51Maybe the most famous native athlete ever Jim Thorpe is tattooed on his body. So can't wait to celebrate
21:57Native American heritage night with Lindy
22:00Drankin Indians in Texas organization and the rest
22:04Let's first fan base
22:06Keldon going to work. How about the turnover there on the other side though caused by Victor and that doesn't
22:12show up in the stat sheet
22:14He doesn't get a block. He doesn't get a steal for that
22:16But you have camp Spencer gets all the way in the paint
22:19He looks like he's gonna shoot a shot Victor steps in he throws the ball away our guys go the
22:23opposite direction and Keldon wheels and deals to the basket
22:27Spurs have just been wheeling and dealing all night for me another number seven and he's three away from ten
22:36KJ three
22:46I just busy steam I mean they're just young enough where they might could still continue to challenge a victor.
22:53He might get to ten blocks
22:58Gigi Jackson shot clock going down
23:02No good Victor gobbles up his fifteenth rebound
23:11Well many other
23:13In and out showing the handles weights they can't back it in
23:18If you've got that a little higher off the glass you've gotten back to it
23:25We're gonna have some more fun over here
23:31It's been a lot of fun tonight
23:34About the people in the stands
23:37Hey, even if you're a Grizzlies fan, you're gonna you're gonna leave the arena tonight say man
23:42The Spurs is just all kinds of crazy dumps. Yep. You're still gonna get some entertainment out of it
23:48You're cowered off the mark and the Grizzlies just so decimated with their lineup and their injuries
23:53It's been a tough run. Keldon blocks
23:59Multitude of guys lost for the season including John Moran
24:02Harper got the block there and Clinton jr. Got hit and then Howard falls down
24:10Four hundred and thirty seven man games miss most in the NBA fourth most starting lineups
24:15Who are the Grizzlies?
24:17Twenty-four different starters. That's most in the NBA
24:22And there's a couple of the guys that are banged up Jalen Wells
24:28John Moran was on the bench
24:34Yeah, I thought Victor maybe had a chance to get the ten blocks silly me I didn't didn't realize when
24:39we were up by
24:4034
24:43DG jackson
24:49Three is good clock
24:52Issue
24:55This will be 35 even
24:58Thirty-five point eight
25:04You know wet spot on the floor
25:10And Victor
25:13Don't know about the fourth quarter right Sean I mean maybe a couple minutes to start the floor
25:20Probably not not just me being hopeful. Yeah useful and positive
25:30Champagne and an offensive foul Victor was running to the hoop and then I just could have seen Champagne throwing
25:35it up
25:36Yeah, little bit of a hold there
25:44There's these will hold it
25:46I'm looking at that other score right the Bulls score one
25:49Sorry, the 76ers 157 yep, but they beat the Bulls by 21 57 to 137 you score 137 you get
25:58blown out
25:59How crazy is that?
26:00Oh
26:02Jay penny rebound time for the Spurs Dylan Harper looking up checking the clock passes it off Victor
26:09At the horn it rolls in of course it does because the Spurs are nasty
26:16Show him that nasty
26:22Well that I mean that just goes to the point that you know the ball just has to be out
26:27of your hands
26:27Dylan Harper doesn't panic in that situation has plenty of time and Victor gets it off in time
26:41There are no words for that insanity
26:53All right fourth quarter about to start I just saw Victor women Yama go back to the locker room Sean
26:58Well, I don't know if I just yeah, let's go back there move back and break
27:11Bubbly lost it out of balance to start
27:17Where's of led by
27:1934 it's their largest lead of course Victor hitting the three at the buzzer to get it back to there
27:27Camp Spencer just hasn't had it tonight or Memphis
27:32Leading score
27:34That's prosper with 12
27:37Ball picked up by the Spurs
27:3949 rebound to 23
27:41Yeah, I mean expect to see this crew pretty much finish off the ball game
27:48Maybe Mitch throw a couple other bodies out there get on the time, but
27:52I just there you go good hands there for me some fun when we talked about it
27:56So I'm get a couple steals in his first in as a spur and those nice soft touch there
28:03Lovely playing for his eighth NBA team the oldest player on the Spurs
28:09Signed the 10-day contract
28:10For the rest of the year coward three
28:14The mark lovely nice box out of Gibson there
28:17Really?
28:21That's old-school right there
28:23Back right to the body of dodge Gibson
28:27Barnes
28:28Hey, he's feeling it tonight
28:31HP's hit his third three. He's a double figures 100 percent. I
28:36Mean he had that nice three in the corner where you have to catch it above his head and fire
28:40that one
28:40He's got to put the ball on the floor one time
28:44Power the bucket Barnes the seventh spur in double figures again
28:48They have eight averaging ten or more which will be a record if that holds the final nine games of
28:54the season
28:57Nine more games for the Spurs made for us eight more broadcasts
29:07Keldon again doing work he's got 15 that's vintage Kelvin so I think he just added the spin moves the
29:14part a little bit more time off the clock
29:19Gives it easy jump hook for Kelvin again Todd Gibson showing some veteran presence as a little cut there gets
29:27back to his left hand
29:28Oh
29:32Laughlin driving waiting and another offensive foul against San Antonio
29:40So the rest here for Mitch Johnson's
29:43Rotation guys Sean and then the two days off and then to Milwaukee. That's that's some nice time there. Yeah
29:49Body to heal right days off in the season. Well, it depends how much time Mitch is going to give
29:54them off
29:56This is true practice could still be consistent. There will be a day off in there. No down 89 90
30:01Larry Brown. We're practicing both days
30:04with tape tables
30:06We're taking for practice both days
30:09Because sometimes you don't take the angles and you kind of walk. Yeah, you just walk a room. Yeah, you
30:13don't go hard
30:14They're kind of go through the motions. You do a lot of dummy offense
30:18We're talking about spots where you want to get better defensively start taping ankles. That means you're going at it
30:25Jackson leaking out and it's fouled on the dunk
30:34Keldon foul
30:35He's likely coming out here after this
30:37First free throw is Mac Biombo Lindy waters the third Kelly Olenek all
30:43Getting set to check in
30:46The Spurs go for their 50 fifth win if they hang on here
30:56Jackson first free throw good here comes his Mac Lindy Kelly
31:05HB Plumlee and Keldon get a rest
31:14So it's all the vets and Carter Bryan out there
31:25Under nine minutes to go
31:35Right moves it some zone here from Memphis waters. No good
31:42Gigi Jackson almost stumbles drives hangs it scores. Oh, okay. I wasn't bad at all
31:50Solid player came in pretty much surprised everybody as a rookie
31:57Nice effort there again the Grizzlies they've got some good young players
32:02Of course, they're really their core really
32:05All of them are injured this year, but they've got some talent injured or traded away
32:09They trade away Jerry Jackson jr. To Utah, which was a huge certainly a surprise huge surprise
32:15And I told you that I think I think you were like what? Yeah
32:19Not quite as shocking as when you touched me about Luka Doncic
32:22Okay, that will live on forever
32:25So check your sources give you one of those fake accounts
32:30Don't think account there
32:34That was a crazy night, but yeah the jazz trade away Jaron Jackson jr. Big deal
32:39Utah next year we were talking about that off-camera with our production crew last night. We're gonna be really
32:44really good
32:46They're gonna make a big leap they stay healthy. We're gonna get a high draft pick
32:52Laughlin a spin around for Jay Mac
32:55Didn't want to take the chance to come down with the basketball allow the defense to get back in the
32:59play
33:0050 points in the paint tonight
33:06This Mac was leaking out I saw
33:09Jordan might let it fly
33:11Get biz Macadunk here
33:18Olenic
33:21Back and down
33:23Back and down
33:24Stone
33:30Cedric Coward kitchen
33:37Another promising young player
33:40Really really good crazy bills really long arms long wingspan. He's athletic. He shoots it
33:47Fairly well
33:51You're going back to the DG Jackson. I mean, it's good. Sorry about Jaron Jackson, Jr
33:57You trade him away
33:59It's almost like the writings on the wall like you're going into a rebuild. You're just gonna try to
34:04Mimic what? Okay. See pulled off. So I would not be surprised to see John Moran traded as well this
34:09summer
34:11In shock me one bit
34:13Grant has just not been able to be in the lineup the last couple years waters
34:18Hits the three
34:20The native touch from Lindy
34:24We can we can shoot it, you know, you're strong oak. What is Lindy waters?
34:27Ha-oh, which means three is these Lindy waters the third
34:31Ha-oh, ha-oh
34:37Did your homework
34:45There's Matt comes flying in loose ball foul and a timeout
34:56There's Mike
34:57Paul for three three
35:01Look at policy speaking behind the screen there from Kelly olenic hitting nothing but the bottom
35:13Game recap, a lot to love on this tonight, Sean.
35:18Yeah, what a start.
35:20I mean, that start was one of the best I've seen in a long, long time.
35:24Our guys just moved it, shared it, got any shot they want.
35:28Three balls, dunks galore.
35:30Very impressive start to this one.
35:33And how about the balance attack again?
35:35I mean, that's been the Spurs, the M.O. of late, pretty much all season long, actually.
35:41Seven guys in double figures.
35:43The Celtics beat the Thunder tonight, 119.
35:48So, 109, Jalen Brown with 31-8-8, so if the Spurs hold on, that three-game lead goes to
35:56two.
35:57At the end of this one.
36:00There's an offensive foul is called.
36:07I haven't gotten my big dunk from Carter Bryant yet.
36:10If that happens, you're a complete man.
36:18You're actually not a complete man until you buy a salmon suit.
36:21I need that just to complete the salmon suit.
36:26You're Miami Vice suit.
36:28I'm going to get you one for Christmas.
36:31Are you?
36:33All right, as long as I pick the brand.
36:35Oh, well, no.
36:37I'm going to try and get a real good deal on that around town.
36:41Yeah, okay.
36:42If anyone wants to give me a good deal.
36:46Outfit me in some smoked salmon.
36:47Yes.
36:50Defensive three seconds.
36:51Spencer with the technical.
36:54Actually, it was canned salmon.
36:56The suit you were.
36:58Can salmon.
36:59Took me back to my childhood.
37:00There you go.
37:11Coward rising.
37:13It's short.
37:14Olenek the rebound.
37:18McLaughlin brings it up.
37:20It looks good on you, though.
37:21I got to tell you.
37:22Not everybody can wear that.
37:26I appreciate that.
37:28One of my better colors.
37:30That and baby blue.
37:33It's all right.
37:34Oh, you do have a baby blue suit, too, don't you?
37:36Yep.
37:37And every time I wear it, you say it looks good.
37:38Every time you wear it, Daniel Ashcraft just salivates.
37:44That is, it is, you know, close to the Tar Heel colors.
37:48As they look for their new next head coach.
37:52Yeah.
37:53I wish they would have kept Uber Davis around.
38:01They're not getting Tommy Lloyd.
38:02They think they're getting it.
38:05I wasn't going to bring it up.
38:06He wanted me to, Daniel wanted me to bring it up.
38:08But there are some options out there.
38:11And he might be in there.
38:13He might be in there.
38:15Why downgrade?
38:19He's out there.
38:20There's some rumors about Bulls head coach Billy Donovan after the 20-point loss tonight.
38:27Maybe adding to that, TJ Otzelberger at Iowa State.
38:34I'm being told he didn't shut it down today, so, never mind.
38:41Cyclones staying Iowa State.
38:43Kelly Olenek hits a three.
38:46Olenek last year, career high from downtown.
38:49Percentage-wise.
38:50Kelly might not get in on this dunk brigade, but he joins the three-point club tonight.
38:56There's a lot of three-pointers as well.
38:58Oh, 16, only 11 more to break the, only 11, to tie the franchise record.
39:05I don't think that's happening.
39:06That would be crazy.
39:08Four minutes, 11 threes.
39:12Olenek foul, and he'll get to the free throw line.
39:14So, maybe the Sean, the biggest news of the day was that the Board of Governors voted to officially go
39:20explore expansion in Seattle, in Vegas.
39:23It was unanimous.
39:24Adam Silver, holding a press conference today, saying that that, again, would not start, a new team wouldn't start in
39:30those cities until the 28-29 season.
39:33And he did say, it is possible that they may look at it and decide, no, we're going to keep
39:38it at 30.
39:39No.
39:39No.
39:41You're saying, no.
39:43Seattle needs their team back.
39:45Vegas is a, you know, built-in attendance there to goldmine.
39:50So many things to do in that city.
39:53So many visitors and tourists that are going to love to go to the games besides the casinos.
40:00Vegas is going to make that happen.
40:02Seattle is going to make it happen.
40:04No way around it.
40:06Let's get a message from Frostbanken.
40:07Let's get a message from Frostbanken.
40:15With Mitch Johnson being a Seattle guy, Sean, he talked about it before the game, said it's a positive for
40:21the NBA.
40:21He wouldn't be mad at a road trip going back home at all.
40:27And Adam Silver talked about it today in his press conference as well.
40:30I mean, that rivalry with Portland back in the day with the Superstonics.
40:34I mean, you kind of lost a rivalry there.
40:36You're going to get one back.
40:37And again, the question is, which team is going to move to the Eastern Conference?
40:42Because then it would be 16 each.
40:44Most like the Minnesota, right?
40:46There's...
40:46Carter Bryant has space and he puts up a big one.
40:51Now I am complete.
40:54That was for Sean Elliott.
40:56Now I'm a complete man.
40:58He said it.
40:59Now all I need is my salmon soup.
41:01All you need is a salmon soup.
41:09Actually, all you need to do is eat scallops on Cape Cod with me.
41:13Oh, and then you're complete.
41:18Oh, and then you're complete.
41:23Burton, no good on the three.
41:25That's small for a second.
41:27I mean, he's looking for his chance.
41:30Prove he can dunk.
41:32Thought he was going to try to go there, but he made the right decision.
41:35Unfortunately, it doesn't work out for him.
41:38You are a complete man.
41:41Yeah.
41:42This completes me.
41:45Carter in the open court.
41:48Got really fancy.
41:50A soft, powerful dunk.
41:54Here are the standings.
41:55Thunder with the loss to the Celtics tonight in Boston.
41:59Spurs two and a half back.
42:02When this clock kicks down, it'll be two.
42:05Go back in a time machine and get that Portland and Utah game at home.
42:11Yep.
42:12You know, one of the Golden State games.
42:15You know, the game here.
42:17Where you drop that one down the stretch.
42:21Victor was on minutes restrictions.
42:24He was trying to work himself back in that game.
42:27Mitch stuck to his guns, and I mean, that's why you can't afford to drop those games.
42:33Oh, another one.
42:35And he hangs on the rim.
42:39Only asked for one.
42:40Didn't need to there, Carter, but I enjoyed it.
42:44Thunder's glove.
42:45The Lakers twice on their remaining schedule.
42:47They've got seven games left on their schedule
42:50against teams that are 500 or better.
42:52The Spurs have four left on their schedule.
43:00That was the 12th dunk of the night, which ties the season high for the Spurs.
43:05McLaughlin three.
43:10When did we have 12 dunks in another game?
43:12That's what I'd like to know.
43:17I can't remember this many dunks.
43:22Trying to find that for you.
43:26So Max Prosper puts it in.
43:35It was February 10th at the Lakers.
43:40That was right before the All-Star break.
43:43And also 12 dunks on opening night.
43:46Against Dallas.
43:48Well, it seemed to me,
43:49Victor had 10 of them.
43:53That Dallas game, just crazy dominant.
43:59The Lakers game, I can't remember that many dunks.
44:04It was eons ago.
44:06Before the rodeo trip.
44:07That was the.
44:08No, that wasn't the five-hour game.
44:10No, that was the foul game was earlier.
44:14Earlier on.
44:24116 remaining here in the fourth.
44:27Other news around the league, Sean,
44:29the Players Association came out and said that the 65 game rule minimum
44:35should potentially change for postseason awards and all that stuff
44:40because of the Kate Cunningham injury,
44:41potentially taking him out of the race for those awards
44:44and first team NBA.
44:46Yeah, it had good intentions.
44:48I still like the rule.
44:51I really do.
44:53Forces guys to play.
44:56But, you know, the Kate Cunningham situation is really unfortunate.
45:00If the collapsed lung.
45:05Tyler Burton has just fouled out.
45:07Burton.
45:09The rookie from Huxbridge, Massachusetts.
45:15Now you're happy.
45:18I've mentioned the two Massachusetts links on the Grizzlies tonight.
45:28First free throw good from Kelly.
45:31Victor back on the bench after
45:33going to the locker room to start the fourth quarter.
45:41That was a loud scream.
45:42Yeah.
45:43You just now noticed.
45:45It's happening going on all night.
45:47Yes, it has been.
45:48Oh my goodness.
45:50No, it hasn't.
45:51It's not that loud.
45:53Yeah, it's just that there's...
45:54Our stage manager is saying yes.
45:57Emphatically, it has been.
45:58Just that now there are a lot of empty seats.
46:02Is that behind us?
46:04Less bodies to work through.
46:05Behind us?
46:06In the stands here?
46:06Yeah.
46:08Somewhere.
46:12It's going right through our headsets.
46:18Fantastic audio by our crew tonight.
46:21By the way, Kelly Olenek has a chance
46:23to break into double features.
46:26So,
46:27that would be the eighth.
46:29Yeah.
46:30He's more than a point a minute right now.
46:35Yeah, nine points, eight minutes.
46:41Oh, the Bryant passing off.
46:44Well, it passes.
46:46Waters, three.
46:52Oh, Max Prosper driving.
46:57And one.
46:57Carter Bryant trying.
46:58Oh, he went after that one.
46:59Another highlight.
47:00Go, Max.
47:01Oh, Max Prosper.
47:08Oh, he went after this one hard.
47:11What?
47:13It's a touch late.
47:15Otherwise,
47:15he's adding to that magnificent block he had
47:18the other night in Miami.
47:20Just hung in the air against Pella Larson.
47:24You still don't do your fellow Wildcats like that.
47:27Try to give each other a break.
47:32The Spurs will hold it.
47:37Another dominating effort tonight.
47:41The team with the second best record.
47:46We'll gladly take the team turnover.
47:50Tonight where Memphis had nine players out
47:54on their injury report.
47:56Spurs
47:58come here against a team
48:00that still was playing hard.
48:03Especially in the first half.
48:06A go, Spurs, go.
48:07Chant has broken out.
48:09Here in San Antonio.
48:10Victor notices it near the Spurs bench.
48:13And the San Antonio Spurs
48:15have won their 55th game
48:18of the season.
48:22Their seventh straight win.
48:25Their 23rd out of 25.
48:28Because Vegas got it wrong this time.
48:31Would they have us at winning 40, maybe?
48:3440.1?
48:35I don't know.
48:35I could have a .1.
48:37It's like 40.
48:4040 and a half.
48:41That's what they had.
48:43Well, 55.
48:45On the march to 60.
48:4855.
48:49We did not see
48:49the possibility of winning 60
48:52coming at the beginning of the season.
48:54Our guys have really grown together.
48:56Boy,
48:57can't say enough
48:58about the growth
48:59of this ball club.
49:0255 with nine more.
49:05Remaining on the schedule.
49:06Let's send it down to Chris Miles.
49:09So, Harrison,
49:10I mean,
49:11seven consecutive wins,
49:12but in the third quarter
49:13it was a 13-point game.
49:15And you guys
49:16turned this into a blowout.
49:17Talk about the professionalism
49:19and the growth of this group
49:20and what you were able to do
49:21in the third quarter
49:22scoring those 41-40.
49:23I think the biggest thing for us
49:25is just trying to play
49:25a consistent game.
49:26We've had a lot of games
49:27where we've had leads.
49:28We've let teams get back into it.
49:29So,
49:29I'm just proud of every single player
49:31that came in tonight,
49:31came in,
49:32contributed,
49:33and helped us get this win.
49:34And now just two games
49:35out of first place out west.
49:37The Thunder lost tonight.
49:39What would this mean
49:40for this team
49:41to be able to catch the Thunder
49:42for first place out west?
49:44I think our biggest thing right now
49:45is just trying to take everything
49:46day by day.
49:47We know what we need to do.
49:48We're happy with the habits
49:49that we're building.
49:50We're enjoying that process
49:51and celebrating each other's success.
49:53And I think that's
49:53what we're trying to do
49:54to continue to move forward.
49:55All right.
49:56Congrats on win number 55
49:57on the season.
49:58We appreciate you.
49:59Jacob, Sean,
50:00back to you guys.
50:01Mr. 100%,
50:02one of seven Spurs
50:04in double figures tonight.
50:05That was a true
50:06vet answer right there.
50:07Those guys are worried
50:08about getting better
50:09game by game.
50:10Let the talking heads
50:11speculate about
50:12catching the Thunder.
50:14We'll wrap it up
50:15right after this
50:16from Memphis.
50:17From Memphis.
