<v Speaker 1>god whoa no, whoa whoa whoah point guard.

00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:25.920
<v Speaker 2>Sorry, hey, everybody, what's going on?

6
00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:29.359
<v Speaker 3>Welcome to another edition of the San Antonio Spurs Weekly

7
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:33.240
<v Speaker 3>Fast Break Ripport. That's right where we take the ball

8
00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:36.079
<v Speaker 3>from the inbounds and we pass it up to the court.

9
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:38.759
<v Speaker 2>To Mamo for the jam.

10
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:40.960
<v Speaker 3>As we talk a little bit about last night's action

11
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:43.880
<v Speaker 3>and how I ate some humble pie.

12
00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:45.719
<v Speaker 2>Last night for you Spurs fans. I've been doing it

13
00:00:45.759 --> 00:00:46.320
<v Speaker 2>all year long.

14
00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:50.039
<v Speaker 3>Okay, this makes me a great Spurs fan and also

15
00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:52.119
<v Speaker 3>a fan of over forty years.

16
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:56.280
<v Speaker 2>I will admit when I'm wrong. I will also take.

17
00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:58.479
<v Speaker 3>The heat when I say something bad. And they play

18
00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:03.039
<v Speaker 3>very very well. Last night, the San Antonio Spurs jumped

19
00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:06.000
<v Speaker 3>out to a twenty five point lead on the third

20
00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:09.280
<v Speaker 3>place New York Knickerbockers in the Eastern Conference, who have

21
00:01:09.359 --> 00:01:11.640
<v Speaker 3>been having very good year this year, one of their

22
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:13.920
<v Speaker 3>best years in a very long time now. Of course,

23
00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:17.239
<v Speaker 3>they did not play with Jalen Brunson last night. But

24
00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:20.239
<v Speaker 3>they still have plenty of firepower on that Nick's side.

25
00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:23.519
<v Speaker 3>But san Antonio last night, at times in the game,

26
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:25.000
<v Speaker 3>you're sitting there going.

27
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:26.280
<v Speaker 2>Who's going to be the firepower?

28
00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:29.480
<v Speaker 3>Because san Antonio ended up coming up with a starting

29
00:01:29.519 --> 00:01:33.719
<v Speaker 3>lineup of Jeremy Sohan, Devin Vessel, Chris Paul Harrison Barnes,

30
00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:36.599
<v Speaker 3>and Steph Castle. That's a small lineup for the Spurs,

31
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:40.519
<v Speaker 3>and the only starter over twenty points last night, of course,

32
00:01:40.760 --> 00:01:44.200
<v Speaker 3>is going to be the rookie of the year, Steph Castle,

33
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:47.000
<v Speaker 3>half of Area fifty one. He had twenty two points,

34
00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:50.560
<v Speaker 3>three rebounds, three assists. The rest of the starters did

35
00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:54.079
<v Speaker 3>have double digits. However, But how about this. When you're

36
00:01:54.120 --> 00:01:58.280
<v Speaker 3>a Spurs fan and you look on the point totals

37
00:01:58.519 --> 00:02:01.519
<v Speaker 3>and you see Jeremy Sohan with only ten, Visel with

38
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:06.159
<v Speaker 3>only ten, and kJ with six, You're wondering, what the

39
00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:07.079
<v Speaker 3>heck is going on?

40
00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:08.599
<v Speaker 2>How are we going to win?

41
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:12.319
<v Speaker 3>Steph Cassel couldn't carry the team? Right, Well, they didn't

42
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:15.599
<v Speaker 3>have to. One of the best nights in NBA history.

43
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:16.479
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not just.

44
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:19.360
<v Speaker 3>Calling this because I'm a Spurs fan, Okay, I'm not

45
00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:21.800
<v Speaker 3>just calling it because it was a great night for

46
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:26.520
<v Speaker 3>Sandrew Mamu Kalafala, Sana fin Avishevitch. Sorry, Sanjo, you know

47
00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:28.639
<v Speaker 3>I'd love to have a little fun with the name

48
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:32.560
<v Speaker 3>as well. But Mamu man look like Manu Ginobili out

49
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:33.400
<v Speaker 3>there last night.

50
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:37.919
<v Speaker 2>He broke several NBA records. I don't care.

51
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:41.400
<v Speaker 3>How good Kevin Durant and Devin Booker were together last night,

52
00:02:41.759 --> 00:02:45.719
<v Speaker 3>some of you guys on X I was going back

53
00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:48.159
<v Speaker 3>and forth with you guys, kidding around, saying, hey, they

54
00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:50.319
<v Speaker 3>may have had good nights, but did you notice what

55
00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:56.319
<v Speaker 3>Sandro Mamu did last night? Thirty four points in twenty minutes.

56
00:02:56.479 --> 00:03:00.159
<v Speaker 3>That is an NBA record. Nobody has scored that many

57
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:02.439
<v Speaker 3>points in that little amount of minutes.

58
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:05.000
<v Speaker 2>Also, seven of seven from.

59
00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:08.719
<v Speaker 3>Three point range, and he was twelve of thirteen from

60
00:03:08.759 --> 00:03:13.680
<v Speaker 3>the field ninety three percent. I want to know when

61
00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:16.599
<v Speaker 3>you have ever seen a better performance, and I'm putting

62
00:03:16.599 --> 00:03:17.080
<v Speaker 3>it out there.

63
00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:19.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry since Michael George.

64
00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:23.000
<v Speaker 3>You can laugh at me all you want, but I

65
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:25.560
<v Speaker 3>have not seen a player take over a game like

66
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:29.159
<v Speaker 3>that and just be on that much of a hot streak.

67
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:32.439
<v Speaker 2>Mamu did it last night. I don't know if it

68
00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:36.120
<v Speaker 2>was because of flavor flav in the audience.

69
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:38.439
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if it's because his family was there.

70
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:40.479
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if it's because he's playing against his

71
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:43.240
<v Speaker 3>childhood team in the New York Knickerbockers.

72
00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:46.080
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it was all three coming together.

73
00:03:45.800 --> 00:03:49.360
<v Speaker 3>For a magical conjunction and time where Mamu was the

74
00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:52.479
<v Speaker 3>star of the night for the San Antonio Spurs. Now

75
00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:55.199
<v Speaker 3>we've talked a lot about him in the future as

76
00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:59.520
<v Speaker 3>a Spur. Now business sense, it makes sense if they

77
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:03.759
<v Speaker 3>end up kind of pushing Mamu to the back, getting

78
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:07.599
<v Speaker 3>rid of Bassi, maybe resigning Biambo, maybe not even resigning

79
00:04:07.639 --> 00:04:12.199
<v Speaker 3>Biambo and picking up somebody like a nas Red. But

80
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:15.560
<v Speaker 3>Mamu last night proved he needs a contract extension.

81
00:04:16.240 --> 00:04:18.879
<v Speaker 2>This man shoots, passes.

82
00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:22.680
<v Speaker 3>Scores, dunks, and I believe that if you just give

83
00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:26.160
<v Speaker 3>him time on the floor, he's going to produce. The

84
00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:29.920
<v Speaker 3>problem is they just don't give him time on the floor. Now,

85
00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:32.360
<v Speaker 3>there were at times this year when he made some

86
00:04:32.519 --> 00:04:36.040
<v Speaker 3>really bad decisions when dribbling the ball. He looked like

87
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.079
<v Speaker 3>he was all over the court looking for someone to

88
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:41.279
<v Speaker 3>pass to and just didn't know where to go. But

89
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:44.079
<v Speaker 3>let's pump the brakes a little bit. This happens to

90
00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:47.279
<v Speaker 3>every NBA player. It happened to Chris Paul last night

91
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.639
<v Speaker 3>several times when the Spurs cannot find anybody on offense

92
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:53.160
<v Speaker 3>to step up. That was late in the third quarter

93
00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:55.560
<v Speaker 3>when the Knicks were starting to make their run, after

94
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.319
<v Speaker 3>San Antonio was up twenty five in the first half

95
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:02.519
<v Speaker 3>and Mamu decided to take over. He had twenty one

96
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:06.439
<v Speaker 3>points in the third or fourth quarter. Twenty one points

97
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:09.879
<v Speaker 3>in the fourth quarter. This show is all about Mamu

98
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:13.639
<v Speaker 3>right now because he deserves his props. San Antonio Spurs

99
00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:18.199
<v Speaker 3>front office. This man deserves a contract extension this year.

100
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:20.399
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely.

101
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:24.560
<v Speaker 3>His former career high was twenty eight points when he

102
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:27.439
<v Speaker 3>played for Milwaukee. And if you can put up twenty

103
00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:31.399
<v Speaker 3>eight points when you're playing in Milwaukee with Giannis and Crewe,

104
00:05:31.959 --> 00:05:33.800
<v Speaker 3>and then you come here and do what you do

105
00:05:33.879 --> 00:05:36.680
<v Speaker 3>Mamu man I like Mamu.

106
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:38.519
<v Speaker 2>It makes me want to go out and get.

107
00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:43.360
<v Speaker 3>A jersey right now, and number fifty four jersey. And

108
00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:46.720
<v Speaker 3>you can tell that he loves playing here in San Antonio.

109
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:49.720
<v Speaker 3>You can tell that the Spurs love having him. He

110
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:54.040
<v Speaker 3>is that player where everybody's really rooting for. On the bench,

111
00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:59.040
<v Speaker 3>you saw the guys on the bench, Steph Castle, Wemby,

112
00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:02.680
<v Speaker 3>Chris Paul. I mean, Chris Paul was getting him the ball.

113
00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:06.319
<v Speaker 3>You could see that Chris Paul was like, he needs

114
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:08.240
<v Speaker 3>to score, he needs to score.

115
00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:11.240
<v Speaker 2>And sure enough, he did just that last night.

116
00:06:11.800 --> 00:06:16.160
<v Speaker 3>And congratulations to the point God for really taking over.

117
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:19.800
<v Speaker 3>And it really seemed like one of those YMCA Basketball

118
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:21.639
<v Speaker 3>League games, you know, where the guy doesn't get a

119
00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:24.199
<v Speaker 3>lot of playing time throughout the year and then all

120
00:06:24.199 --> 00:06:27.319
<v Speaker 3>of a sudden you want to see that person do really,

121
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:29.959
<v Speaker 3>really well, and then they get out there and they

122
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:32.759
<v Speaker 3>do exceptionally well and you're.

123
00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:35.120
<v Speaker 2>Like, just keep feeding him the ball. Sam Junder did

124
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:35.720
<v Speaker 2>that last night.

125
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:38.279
<v Speaker 3>A big win for the Spurs one twenty one oh five,

126
00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:41.839
<v Speaker 3>pushing their record win total to twenty nine wins. Of course,

127
00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:45.199
<v Speaker 3>last year only twenty one wins, on pace for the

128
00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:48.800
<v Speaker 3>thirty one we picked if they had an injury ridden season,

129
00:06:48.839 --> 00:06:52.199
<v Speaker 3>which they really have this year, we haven't had a

130
00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:54.839
<v Speaker 3>healthy lineup. We want to leave you this on this

131
00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:58.279
<v Speaker 3>fast break report, Spurs fans, do you want.

132
00:06:58.160 --> 00:07:00.639
<v Speaker 2>To see this team, this core stay together.

133
00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:04.360
<v Speaker 3>This is why we want to see this happen in

134
00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:05.399
<v Speaker 3>San Antonio.

135
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:07.120
<v Speaker 2>We have talked a.

136
00:07:07.079 --> 00:07:11.480
<v Speaker 3>Lot about possible offseason moves for another big name coming

137
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:14.759
<v Speaker 3>to San Antonio. But do you want a big name

138
00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:17.600
<v Speaker 3>player to come to San Antonio that is gonna kill

139
00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:22.120
<v Speaker 3>our salary cap for years to come, deplete our draft picks,

140
00:07:22.439 --> 00:07:27.279
<v Speaker 3>deplete our trade options. When you've got such a camaraderie

141
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:29.240
<v Speaker 3>on this team, if you go back and watch this

142
00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:33.759
<v Speaker 3>game and you watch from players one to twelve on

143
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:41.519
<v Speaker 3>that bench, even your injury ridden players, the smiles, the excitement,

144
00:07:42.639 --> 00:07:45.680
<v Speaker 3>the flow of this team is like one I haven't

145
00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:48.959
<v Speaker 3>seen in San Antonio in a very long time. Even

146
00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:54.759
<v Speaker 3>the days of Tim Duncan, Jenoblee Parker it was business.

147
00:07:55.439 --> 00:07:58.439
<v Speaker 3>This team is having so much fun and when they

148
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:02.439
<v Speaker 3>get out there and score, they can score. Would you

149
00:08:02.480 --> 00:08:07.319
<v Speaker 3>want to see this core stay together? The cell Sohn, Johnson,

150
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:15.800
<v Speaker 3>Wemby Fox, Mamu, Malik Branham, big props last night to

151
00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:20.319
<v Speaker 3>Blake Wesley. Three big assists and he's just a spark plug.

152
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:23.360
<v Speaker 3>If he can control that ball and get his jump

153
00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:25.360
<v Speaker 3>shot down just a little bit more, he's going to

154
00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:28.480
<v Speaker 3>be a deadly backup point guard. But last night it

155
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:32.759
<v Speaker 3>was all about Mamu leading the Spurs to victory one
