There are ups and downs but all in all, the team has surpassed most of our expectations. New players step up every game to compensate the absence of thr injured guys. Loving the "Next Man Up" attitude.
Now, that the team is slowly getting out of the injured list and on its way to a full and healthy roster, the next challenge is to maintain the same winning attitude and chemistry as the team adjusts their rotation accordingly with players coming back in.

This right here is the power of continuity.
We are now being called the deepest team in the league behind OKC. Crazy compliment all things considered.
You are right, it’s about chemistry and health now. It takes experience. Win or lose on Wednesday, Having all our guys healthy going forward is the most important thing.
Is it crazy to say, it almost feels like the season truly starts on Wednesday’s game? (if Wemby plays.)
After our last two seasons, it’s so exciting to be a spurs fan right now.
We need a string of health, and nothing else matters, not even wins.
This is honestly a really interesting tid bit, that I haven’t thought about. I looked at some of the top teams in the league and this is how many players they have averaging 10+ points per game
Pistons: 6
Rockets: 6
Thunder: 7
Lakers: 5
Nuggets: 7
Spurs: 8
The 9th player for the Spurs is Kornet. Who does EVERYTHING else beyond scoring. This team is deep man.
Games played by these players so far this season (23 games in total):
Wemby – 12
Fox -14
Castle -14
Harper – 13
Barnes, Keldon, Devin, Julian – 23
Games Fox and Wemby played together: 8
Games Fox, Harper, and Castle played together: 1
Add all the averages up and it’ll be 126+ points from them on any given night. As long as the defense is there, then their average offensive scoring will be able to keep up pretty well with any team.
