    Spurs' lead-blowing problems persist

    Thank you to everyone who joined live for the latest edition of Corporate Knowledge: After Dark, this time following a 111-106 Spurs loss to the Rockets. It was never going to be as easy as the first half appeared to be for San Antonio, especially on the second night of a back-to-back on the road against a team you know is going to turn things into a wrestling match. And still, one of the next steps this Spurs team has to take is figuring out how to hang on to these leads against good teams. Once the postseason comes around, that is going to be a necessary trait. In this episode, we discussed San Antonio blowing a 16-point lead, the offense sticking, Wemby struggling, Reed Sheppard leading the Houston charge, and much more in the post-postgame show. For those of you who would like to join live in the future and get in on the chat, you can do so by first subscribing to the Corporate Knowledge newsletter, then downloading the Substack app. You’ll get a notification when we hit the air, which will be shortly after as many games as we can. You can also now watch and listen on your desktop or laptop (thank you, Substack!). If you do miss a show, fear not.

    CK After Dark: It was bound to happen at some point

    Thank you to everyone who tuned into the latest edition of Corporate Knowledge: After Dark, this time following a 119-98 loss to the Thunder that featured a handful of items from the ‘You Can’t Afford To Do That Against This Team’ list I just created. Poor shooting, turnovers, sloppy execution — they all reared their ugly heads, not necessarily all night long, but certainly in high-leverage situations. Against the defending champs, after already beating them three times this season, in Oklahoma City, nothing but peak performance was going to work. Because as we all witnessed, that team and those fans were out for blood. The chippiness was palpable, though we love that stuff regardless of game outcome. We talked about all of that, plus the current two-dimensionality of the absence without Devin Vassell, the need for a more assertive De’Aaron Fox, and the future of this matchup. Not sure if there will be a playoff series between these two this postseason, but man it would be fun.

    CK After Dark: Spurs go 1-1 in back-to-back, prep for OKC (again)

    Thank you to everyone who tuned into the latest edition of Corporate Knowledge: After Dark, this time after a 1-1 back-to-back in Boston and Minneapolis that reflected well the ebbs and flows of January dog days. It also showed how matchups can dictate the course of an entire 48-minute game, and how a flight from one city to the next can mean the difference in your best player getting to his spots with ease and being pushed off them in a fist fight. Personnel and physicality matter, and when the temperature is cranked up, it’s the tiny details you may not even think about in real time that can make a massive difference in a close game. We talked about it all!

    Corporate Knowledge, After Dark: No Vic, no problem (again)

    Thank you to everyone who tuned in for the latest edition of Corporate Knowledge: After Dark, this time after a relatively smooth 123-113 Spurs win over the Pacers in Indy despite the absences of Victor Wembanyama and Devin Vassell. The three-headed guard attack once again took center stage, as it has all season whenever Wemby has been forced out due to injury. De’Aaron Fox went for 24 points, Stephon Castle pitched in 19, and Dylan Harper dropped 22 off the bench to provide a full 48 minutes of ball-handling stability, which is invaluable against the pesky perimeter defenders employed in Indiana. Remember when San Antonio’s point guard rotation was Tre Jones, Malaki Branham and Blake Wesley? Remember the ‘Point Sochan’ experiment? What a difference a year and some change can make.
