Time to go!!
If we lose it won't be because of Dwight, it'll be because of our defense and not changing the way we play. Dwight is beasting this game and Cassipi just blew him off in the post and took a ill advised shot. That will be our undoing. Refusing to commit to a more efficient style of offense. We got some chuckers

I'm with Malta. If Dwight faces somebody his size he can be played one on one in the post. If they commit to going to Dwight teams will stay at home on the shooters. There game should be tailored around pick and rolls more so to take advantage of Dwight going to the hoop. That's the best way for them to collapse defenses and open up the three. The Harden isos and Dwight post-ups won't get it done against a good D with good communication.
Beasly playing D 
Gregg Popovich can’t remember the last Spurs practice, which was more than a month ago
The San Antonio Spurs have a much deserved reputation as one of the best coached teams in the NBA, a squad that knows its strategies, tactics, and individual roles within those efforts about as well as a group of basketball players can. While the Spurs are certainly not without top-level talent, it's telling that they are able to play so well when missing a list of major players that would doom most teams. No matter the circumstances, San Antonio comes across as a team that prepares as much and as effectively as possible.
It's somewhat of a surprise, then, to learn that the Spurs haven't had a real practice in more than a month. Currently near the end of a stretch of 20 games in 37 days, 11 of which have or will come on the road, head coach Gregg Popovich has foregone practicing entirely to keep his team fresh. In fact, he can't remember their last practice. From Mike Monroe for the San Antonio Express-News (viaSLAM):
The November and December schedules have been so full of games and travel days that Popovich has chosen to use off days as rest days, including Sunday. Asked to recall the last practice, Popovich furrowed his brow, scratched his head and gave up.
“I can't remember,” he said.

In fact, the last real practice was Nov. 19, during a stretch of four days without a game after returning from a victory in Utah and preceding a home win over Boston. Popovich calls maintaining consistency the biggest challenge of long stretches without practice.
“There's always some slippage as far as execution is concerned,” he said. “You just play games. You don't get a chance to review or do any muscle memory things or get to the practice court.”

That was so fukking stupid by Teague. You're down, you want to try to score as quick as possible. Especially knowing the other team has a foul to give you want to make a move immediately to at least force them to use that foul. Not dribble around the top of the key for 9 seconds.
