Spurs comeback run not enough to beat Pelicans

For about 12 minutes, it looked like the San Antonio Spurs were going to pull off a big comeback against the New Orleans Pelicans. After going down 20 points in the third quarter, the Spurs came all the way back to take a 5-point lead with 5 minutes to go in the game. San Antonio […]

Open Thread: James Borrego compares Herb Jones to Tim Duncan

On Sunday night, the Spurs hosted the New Orleans Pelicans. Before the game, interim head coach James Borrego spoke with the media. If his name sounds familiar it is because he served as assistant coach to Gregg Popovich twice. The first time was from 2003-2010 where he started as assistant video coordinator before working his […]

Complacent Spurs outhustled by Pelicans, lose in Devin Vassell’s return

The Spurs suffered one of their worst losses of the season. Their thrilling comeback attempt shouldn’t eclipse the fact that they once again seemed to underestimate a less talented team that was a lot hungrier than they were. The Pelicans played with physicality, and their reward was a 104-95 gutsy road win that should have […]

Devin Vassell’s absence revealed how important he is to the Spurs

The San Antonio Spurs salvaged the rest of their brief road trip with a close call in Utah against the young Jazz. It was one of those rare occasions in which records could be misleading because the Jazz (15-30) have more talent than their record indicates, put up a fight at home and have made […]

The Spurs more or less thrashed the Jazz just before going the distance with the Rockets, and now […]

Timberwolves Interested in Three Bulls Guards (REPORT)

The Minnesota Timberwolves need to make a move. At 27-17, the Timberwolves currently occupy the No. 7 seed in the crowded Western Conference. But things can change quickly; the Timberwolves are just three games behind the No. 2-seeded San Antonio Spurs. Every marginal advantage counts. Where San Antonio is loaded with young, big guards who can handle and defend, Minnesota is seeking to address that deficit on its own roster. Rob Dillingham, the eighth overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, h...
