How the Spurs create space where there shouldn’t be any

The Spurs’ starting lineup underwent its second change of the season in their Friday night loss to the 76ers. Dejounte Murray returned to his spot at point guard after sitting out on the 2nd night of a back-to-back against the Wizards, and Jakob Poeltl started his 2nd consecutive game at center.

Along with Bryn Fobes, DeMar DeRozan and LaMarcus Aldridge, the group actually held up fairly well against the 76ers imposing starters. They may have been a -11 in 26 possessions, but as usual, single game plus/minus is a bad way to judge the efficacy of any unit.
