Is the Spurs’ Secret Strategy the Ultimate Key to Cracking the Thunder’s Defense?
The Spurs turned off the faucet.
Every team that plays the Thunder tries to limit turnovers, but head coach Mitch Johnson clearly made it the Spurs’ top priority. The Spurs are normally an average team in terms of limiting turnovers, averaging 14.4 per game (13th in the NBA). But in three games against the Thunder, San Antonio averaged 13.3 turnovers per game, somehow turning it over less against an elite pressure defense. Â
The Spurs recognized that high-risk passes that can lead to live-ball turnovers aren’t worth it against the Thunder, even if they could potentially lead to an easy basket. They made the simple read more often than not and didn’t try to convert many passes crosscourt.
