After the game, Gregg Popovich talked about the Spurs win over the Timberwolves and said, “Once again, as we have done very often, it was a tale of two halves.” We’ll dive into plays from the whole game and see how San Antonio made it past Minnesota.
Let’s start with the highly contested first half showing some two man hustle action. After fighting for the rebound, Kawhi Leonard takes it coast to coast and passes to LaMarcus Aldridge for the dunk. This was a terrific game to see the individual strengths of both of the Spurs best players.
