    Brian Windhorst: "He couldn’t move defensively that made it easier for the Knicks and offensively he was unable to get anything at one point he went 1 of 10 when he gets fatigued he starts flopping around.”

    If the Spurs lose the series, this will be a priceless photo.

    When guys don't respect their opponent, I want them to lose. The fact Victor plays for the Spurs makes it x10.

    I figured Victor would be obnoxious and greedy for wins but I did not peg him for stupid.....

    He commits stupid fouls, elbows opponents, tossing opponents around.

    Just thinking ... maybe Lebron was wrong about Mike Brown.

    De' Aaron Fox was instrumental, the crunch time of Q4, helping Spurs win game 3.

    But for game 4, it was a different story.

    https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/articl...urs-have-a-deaaron-fox-problem-061913278.html

    With 15 seconds left, with the Spurs up one,Wemby got the stop the Spurs desperately needed on the previously unflappable Jalen Brunson. But on the rebound, the ball squeaked out past half-court and Fox chased it down.
    Instead, Fox tried to lay it up over the bigger OG Anunoby and promptly got blocked by the two-time All-Defensive team wing. [​IMG]The Knicks recovered the loose ball.

    Rather than Fox, a career 75% free-throw shooter, standing at the line for two free throws to potentially go up three points, the Knicks suddenly had the ball with 5.7 seconds left and a chance to win it.​
    after a time out, w Anunoby inbounding the ball, Wemby was keying up on Brunson, 30 ft away from the basket
    after the ball was inbounded, instead of staying on his man, Fox jumped to double Brunson, which likely prompted Brunson to fire off a 3-pointer early, knowing he'd have two advantages on the chessboard, if he shot early,
    1. he'd have Wemby away from a potential game-winning rebound chance.
    2. would allow the un-guarded Anunoby to crash unimpeded to the rim now that Fox wasn't there to box him out.
    And that's exactly what happened; Brunson missed, the unboxed-out Anunoby crashed & tipped in​
