Contest: Who will make the 1st three pointer for the Spurs regular season '23-'24. Prizes.

[MultiTroll]

Last year an amazing 8 of you correctly picked Dougie McForbesbot.
I failed to make it cleaner by making it exactly not only which Quarter and then exactly which minute. Robs4000 damn near picked the exact minute.
Who will make the 1st Spurs 3 pointer of 22-23 season? Prizes. (spurstalk.com) (https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=300807&highlight=Who+will+make)

This year the tie breakers will be absolutely clear.

Of course the roster can change by Oct 25th. Will adjust as we draw closer.

[MultiTroll]

Of course any Spur other then on the list of 7 can be written in.

Tiebreakers.
1. Quarter
2. Minute mark. To be clear, put how many minutes REMAINING in the qtr when trey is made. An NBA Quarter is 12 minutes.
3. Put how many seconds remaining in the qtr of made trey.

That should do it. Should a tie remain:
4. How many rotations did the ball make before landing in the net?
5. Name the hottest looking babe you saw in the crowd.

[MultiTroll]

This years winners will be driven or flown to an exciting to-be-announced location in the San Antonio - Austin vicinity.

[John B]

I would say Keldon if he’s starting. But I suspect he plays 6th man Manu role. So I would say Wemby 1st quarter.

Feel free to hold off on your vote until further developments.
I would say Wemby has to be at the 33% algorithm whether he ends up hitting the 1st or not.

Last year we had a few of the stereotypical TrollTalk juveniles trying to get their vote in a month after the 1st trey was made.
This year I'm leaving them 5 days to keyboard masturbate. A compromise.
On the 25th before the game I'll gather up a list of all the legit voters.

[RC_Drunkford]

I say Keldon

[Trueblood]

Vassell

8 minutes 50 seconds left in the 1st quarter

[Seventyniner]

I was gonna go ultra contrarian and pick Tre Jones but he wasn't even on the list. Zollins it is. Third possession of the game, 10:44 left in the 1st.

[Big Empty]

Write in votes for any team member is a legit vote.
This isn't a Trump scam, the vote will count.

If you wanna go with Trey it will be legit.

[John B]

My 2nd choice is Tre as a feeder to Wemby, punishing double-team, but that if he starts.

I think it will be Wemby, Tre, Vassell, Collins, Sochan, Keldon, McBucket, Champagnie, Graham, Malaki, Mamu… from most likely to least who will make the 1st 3pt. Damn all these can legitimately send it, in contrast to 3-4 years ago with Demar and Co.

[Penya]

Vassell, 10.42 left in the 1st quarter

[couchman]

KJ on a kick out 3 min into the 1st quarter.

[spurraider21]

Vassell with 8:20 left in the first

[Seventyniner]

Then I'm in. Tre Jones, still at 10:44 left in the first.

Vassell, 1st quarter, 10:30 left

[Spurs Homer]

vassell - 11:02 left in first qtr

[spurs10]

Vassell 9 minutes and 44 seconds left in the 1st quarter.

[scott]

Tre Jones, 10 minutes to go in the first.

Update: now that we know the starting lineup, I'm updating to stay Devin, first possession off a Wemby assist from a double team.

[jjspur]

Zach Collins with about 5 minutes left in the 1st quarter. Other spurs will try and miss, but Collins will make the first one.

With Britney Spears toddling off in his back. What is 'toddling off?' Anyone?

[widowmaker]

Julian Champenie 2:45-3 minutes left in the first quarter.

[MultiTroll]

Wemby 6:00 left in 1st qtr.

I know it was a preseason game but Wemby sure looked good last night vs Chet and OKC.

Likely Dallas will double Wemby and prevent any 1st qtr dunk ops but I'm still voting for Wemby to find a way.

[MultiTroll]

Game 1 is here!

New voters you have until game time.

[Obstructed_View]

Collins. First or second possession.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

I feel like it's going to be Keldon in one of the first 3 possessions of the game...first two minutes. They'll try to get him on track early.

[MultiTroll]

Voted Wemby but feel Dallas will double and triple team him 1st several possessions.
So ya will not be surpirsed if its a Non Wemby. Keldon or hopefully Vassell keeps up his Curry pace.
