SPUR OF THE MOMENT

LeBaby says he is destined to be on Mt. Swishmore--
Says someone has to be bumped if there can be only four.
Of  course, there's Jordan, Russell, Magic and Bird,
Robertson? Pettit? Duncan's, Kareem's...names were heard.

Last game at the Gahden (Spurs) before the All-Star break,
By 2/20, which of these Cs will the other teams take?
Practically all the Cs' names churning through the trade machine,
Mostly Bass, Wallace, Hump, even AB--of course, Green.

Resprained ankle the MRI results for AB,
Hope not long term--conservative with him we'll be.
Cs' best D stats are with Wallace and Green on the floor,
Spurs (best road record): no Parker, no Ginobli, and more.

What's the story with the phantom calls on Bass?
Happens every night--refs' decision en masse?
Cs at 8% shooting (yep). Spurs a 13-2 opening run.
RONDO FOR THREE! FOR THREE! One way to get it done!

Olynyk very aggressive, down the floor he can run.
GREEN FOR THREE! Cs within 6 at the end of Q1.
Hump good D! Block! Sweet shot--Olynyk, too,
PRESSEY FOR THREE! Cs grab a lead early Q2!

Spurs play a system that is so well-schooled,
Whether their D is off, or their offense has cooled.
Are we showcasing Hump? Great all-around spark!
In Boston I would like his...sneakers to park!

Green crazy hard to the hoop! Cs within 4 end Q2.
Start Q3, Cs ball movement, Wallace scored, too.
Duncan poor shooting, not a happy guy,
Looking at the refs like they're the reason why.

Our Green vs their Green. This Q we're showcasing Bass?
Another C on whom I hope the other teams will pass.
Phantom fouls on the Cs--for Duncan--during Q3,
The kind of Not-Basketball we hate to see.

Just Olynyk, Hump double figs, Cs within 5 start Q4.
Spurs are making threes, the difference in the score.
Purple sneakers--Black History Month--worn by some Cs,
Who need to recover from their Missing-Shots-Disease.

RONDO FOR THREE! Shooting percent better--great!
Duncan fell down, of course, phantom call--late.
Tonight is the end of Sully's double double streak.
Cs (except Sully, Olynyk) should have a restful week.

Spurs went on an 11-0 run,
Sully defending Duncan was not fun.
RONDO FOR THREE! What a night for him,
Olynyk's second double double, finding his rhythm.

Almost a triple double, for Bayless a great night,
Bass, too. Cs will soon learn to finish a game right.
Tip to buzzer, these Cs want to win it,
No matter their skill level, their hearts are always in it.
