It doesn’t quite feel fair that there are only two more games scheduled between the Spurs and the Lakers this year. They meet again on December 5th and December 7th — and that’s it — done for the rest of the regular season after that. Besides maybe Steph Curry’s glorious three-quarter, 51 point explosion against the Wizards, Monday’s multiple-change-of-momentum overtime thriller and Saturday’s Spurs comeback rank among some of the most entertaining games we’ve seen during the early sweep of the season.
That’s because DeMar’s shooting has been lights out, utilizing footwork that is both endemic to DeRozan’s style of play and simultaneously unreal to watch in action.
