Game Thread: Spurs Vs. Pistons. 4/14/2024 2:30 PM CST 10:30 RIGA

[LeBowen]

One last time this season, at least we'll be able to watch Wemby at the Olympics, 6 months with no Wemby would be too much.

[TXstbobcat]

Kind of like those Detroit alternate jerseys.

If Mamu has the green light this game, Wilt's 100 pt game might be in trouble

[scott]

In a game where $17MM/yr man Zach Collins should be the best player on the court, he's going to foul out in 12 minutes.

The money he's getting isn't the worst part of his contract.
Him getting minutes is the issue.

If we're to compete the next season, he has to go. Or at least get DNPs.

[LeBowen]

What a block by Cissoko, kid's got a lot of defensive potential, just needs to develop a shot.

[thiste]

Wolves are getting killed by the Suns!

Obviously Chip now works for the Thunder, but do guys like Chip do summer training for players on other teams? I thought I remember something like that at some point. Be nice if some of our guys could do that.

[BatManu20]

This Pistons team is so ass

Some of them surely do, but Cissoko's jumpshot will be a long term project.
Spurs really need to find the next Chip. Won't be easy.

It’s early. Still plenty of time for the Suns to blow it.

[baseline bum]

Pistons are clearly going to out-tank the Spurs today. They should have just played Wemby and let him get 60. Not like Jalen Duren is going to play.

So stupid to sit Victor when this was obvious the Spurs would kill them anyways.

[BatManu20]

This Pistons team is so ass

Spurs already up by 20

[BatManu20]

Wemby could’ve had a 30+ point triple-double tonight against these G-Leaguers tbh. Maybe even another 5x5 game.

[sfernald]

Wow, the one game spurs need to tank and they just can’t do it, one failure after another this season.

[Degoat]

Really hope sidy can figure out his shot, see no reason why he couldn’t be a draymond type for the spurs

[baseline bum]

They could have fed him for 50 and set the Spurs rookie record. Instead the fans get screwed on Fan Appreciation Day and the team gains no lottery balls anyways. Ugh I hate tanking after we already got our superstar. Especially tanking for a draft where everyone has enormous red flags and no one seems to be a good bet for being a consistent all-star.

Once again, this organization sends mixed messages. Why sit Wembanyama, but play the other NBA players?

Bouyea, Wesley, Duke Jr., Cissoko and Gray should have all logged 40+ minutes, with spot minutes to Collins, Mamukelashvili and Graham.

Heh now it's OKC trouncing the Mavs

[sfernald]

Heh now it's OKC trouncing the Mavs

Okc gonna be #1 in western conference this year.

[rascal]

Portland is sitting everyone. They have their sights set on Sarr.

[LeBowen]

Now he gets injured.
Couldn't have happened months ago.

[SPURt]

Zollins looked like he dislocated a shoulder there

[BatManu20]

Think Zollins just dislocated his shoulder tbh.

[Mal]

What the is this game even
