Keldon’s Kitchen: One spicy ingredient he added - late in the first half, it looked like he would drive all the way to the rim, but he found a sweet spot in between several Hawks defenders, and did a jumpstop and floated the ball in.Sequence of the Game #2: Late in the first half, Collins found Sochan at the rim for a lob dunk reminescent of Duncan and Robinson’s antics.Collins added a steal on the Hawks’ next possession to boot. Sequence of the Game #1: Early in the second period, Collins erased a Bojan Bogdanovic floater, and after a series of Spurs’ passes in transition, ran the floor and laid in a bunny.Then he came off of a pick and nailed a stepback three in rhythm to double San Antonio’s lead. Malaki Moments: His decision making is so impressive - midway through the second frame, he didn’t feel it on a catch-and-shoot initially.There is a Hawk logo behind the baseline seats! SQUEAL.Gorgui Dieng may be in the top seven of all-time Genuinely Likable Spurs.Murray resembles a bizarro unbridled version of Keldon Johnson’s sophomore season out there.First, checking my twitter timeline - did I really predict a 13-69 record for this Spurs squad?.A SEGABABA after a double-overtime thriller? BRING IT ON!.In the Spurs’ third Rodeo Road trip game, Johnson (25 points) and Sochan (18 points, 9 rebounds, and 5 assists) led the way with scarcely notable support from the rest of the supporting cast.įor the host Hawks, who had all starters in double-digits, Trae Young (24 points and 17 assists), Hunter (24 points and 5 rebounds), and Dejounte Murray (18 points and 7 rebounds) provided the necessary output and leadership for the victory. Both teams combined to shoot a pedestrian 21 for 63 (33%) from beyond the arc. Atlanta’s starters took advantage of a poor shooting third period by the Spurs to the tune of 32-17 and salted away the game with time to spare. While Johnson (Keldon) and Sochan continued to do damage for San Antonio, Trae Young woke up out of a slumber late in the opening half to keep Atlanta just enough in the lead. So much action and offensive execution occurred in the opening frame, but a flurry of turnovers and foul trouble to their already-impacted bigs allowed the Hawks to soar ahead of San Antonio in the first behind DeAndre Hunter’s dozen. The Spurs welcomed back Keldon Johnson, Tre Jones, and Jeremy Sochan to the starting line-up and stormed out of the gates to stake an early lead. Atlanta and San Antonio entertained the viewing audience with a frenetic and hotly contested battle throughout the first 2 1⁄ 2 stanzas with a handful of lead changes before the Spurs were done in by a thousand ‘cuts’ of Hawks dunks, unforced turnovers, and spotty offensive execution after a hot start in their 12th straight loss.
