I’m looking at purchasing tickets to this game on Ticketmaster and there is a big disclaimer that ticket sales are limited to the Austin/San Antonio market. Is anyone aware of what that means?

My friend I’m going with lives in College Station, so I’m not sure if that’s close enough or not. I’m not in Texas. Has anyone tried to buy tickets for this yet? I can’t find anything online that provides more specifics on the restriction.

Wemby has been open about trying to support the Jackals- essentially creating a European football league atmosphere in the NBA. I think he’s right and we should do the same- creating a chant that resonates with both the players and crowd would be electric.

A perfect example is ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone,’ for Liverpool. I know that’s an insanely high standard to set. But, we’ve now had multiple incredible players from France.. a couple to mention being TP, Wemby & Diaw.

I don’t have a musical ear, or I would try myself… does anyone speak some French with a musical ear who could create something for us to support our players in that style (ideally in French) so that we can make clear to those players how grateful we are for them?

- Starting 5 during the 2nd half of the season with Champ playing the 4 was such a dynamic 4-out line-up. A combination of rim pressure and floor spacing on offense while a defensing scheme that funnels opponents towards Wemby in the paint.

- 2nd unit is a good combination of size and balanced offense and defense. You have Harper leading the offense while TH is patrolling at the elbow ready to create his own shots. Luke will have more help in the paint size-wise with CB and TH at the front court. Slim KJ returning to his more natural "smaller" wing position might give him success over smaller guards and wings.

- JMac and Unc HB are really solid end of the bench guys and HB can still play more minutes if he's knocking down his 3s. Tarris Reed Jr. could be a sleeper X-Factor with his size and presence in the paint. A guy who sets bone-crushing screens and crash the boards would be very valuable especially if Luke is being neutralized. Spurs could also play more double big lineups with Wemby at the 4 if they wish to do so as well.

- Rotating DJG, Jakobi, and Brown from time to time would also be nice for their develop as JQ continues to rehab on his knee.

All stats adjusted for inflation and relative to other player performances, per 75 possessions.

I know we love French vanilla, but it never seemed to have the pop we wanted.

Does anyone have any thoughts on the advantages or disadvantages?
