After an uncomfortable win over the Clippers on Sunday, the Spurs headed north to play the hapless Kings, who are locked in a desperate battle with the Nets, Wizards, and Pacers to be the most inept team in the NBA. Even so, the second night of a back-to-back is always somewhat unpredictable, and the Kings […]
Following a rollercoaster win in LA on Monday, the Spurs extended their win streak against the lowly Kings on the second night of a back-to-back.

My buddy Marc was kind enough to invite me to the Spurs’ Monday night game against the Clippers.

(Apparently, another team called the “L.A. Kings” also play […]
Ok so let me walk you through how this night went for me and see if it tracks similarly for you. I turn on my TV at 7:00 because I forgot it was a road game. False start. That’s OK. We can recover from this. We’ll be fine. The game starts when? 9:00? P.M.? That […]

The San Antonio Spurs’ loss to the Charlotte Hornets earlier in the season may have been one of the most disappointing losses of the year… at least if you ask Victor Wembanyama.
