Some big time defensive miscues to start this one
Obvious they’re willing to switch *every* screen on or off the ball
But not being decisive with it at all
16-5 Spurs – 8:17 PM

This will be Zach Collins’ 13th NBA start, and first with the Spurs. The rotation could get wonky. Pop says Collins is on a minutes limit on the 2nd night of a b2b:
“He can play 15 minutes. Not 10. Not 18. But 15.” – 8:04 PM

Last night the Wizards shot 57% on wide open 3s. 55% of their attempts from three were wide open.
The Spurs shot 30% on wide open 3s. Only 34% of their attempts from three were wide open.
San Antonio in the end won the double OT game. – 6:24 PM

Dedmon (back spasms) will warm up for Heat tonight. Spo: “Whether we fully clear him for an NBA game tonight we’ll find out in the next 45 minutes.” If not, Yurtseven the backup of course. Oladipo, Morris out.. Several key Spurs out tonight, including D. Murray and J. Poeltl – 6:20 PM

So:
— First Heat-Spurs game postponed due to lack of available Heat players (COVID).
— Heat-Spurs make-up game moved up an hour due to San Antonio ice storm.
— Now this time no Murray, Johnson, Poeltl for Spurs.
Guess, the Heat next have to turn off the air conditioning. – 4:56 PM

Once Tomas Satoransky is fully integrated, I could see Raul Neto sliding to backup shooting guard and either Ish Smith or Sato could start
Wizards may or may not make the play-in tournament, but they should at least have some entertaining lineups and competitive games – 3:58 PM
