Spurs really could use time to see how Keldon and Jeremy work next to Wembanyama. If KJ can't play preseason this almost cements a starting five with Sochan in it.
Last game vs. Thunder the team was smaller than what Pop probably wants to run, with Collins-Wemby as a front line and then Champagnie as more of a traditional SF. I suspect he'd rather have Johnson or Sochan as the third frontcourt player.

This entire season is going to be an experiment to see how everybody works next to Wemby. Pop has always treated the regular season like a laboratory. He's going full mad scientist this year.

With the team that Miami is throwing out there tonight, I don't know if it makes much of a difference. The Spurs probably get more out of a random Tuesday intrasquad scrimmage than what they will see from Duncan Robinson and the Heat's two-way contract all stars. All preseason games are essentially meaningless, but this one especially. We are going to learn next to zero from this game.

Anyone want to buy my 2 seats row 10 for $300 tonight? Less than face value and no stupid Ticketmaster fees. On top of that I’ll also add 2 tickets (section 206) to the 11/10 Timberwolves game included as well! So you get row 10 tonight and 2 seats to a regular season game as well! Seems like a great deal to me :hungry:

i guess theres 2 ways of determining if someone is worthy of a supermax
the way described in your post is "is he generating enough money/revenue for the franchise to warrant paying him a salary that high"
the way i look at it is "is he doing enough to generate wins and driving us toward championships to justify taking up that much of our salary cap space"
ideally both are true, though as a fan of the team i only care about the second

A third is, sadly, do we lose out on superior talent if we don't extend this player?
Jaylen Brown is a number three. He also wins games, but I don't think he's with a super max and never will be.
Wembanyama, however, will be both one and two.

in that third scenario, imo the prudent move is just to trade that player. tatum is still 25. sure, if he wad 33, i'd say screw it, do whatever you can to keep the window open. but tatum, porzingis, white, holiday, horford, plus would they'd have gotten back in a brown trade probably is still good enough to compete

In fairness, when they gave Brown the extension they didn't know that Holiday would be available. But it will still be a burdensome contract.

Then, after getting off work today, I went to Bally and found out that I have to have TNT for tonight’s game—frustrating—but I immediately went and paid for a service that carried TNT. :lol I would have never done paid for this last year.

Jesus Christ I can't believe Wemby is a damn Spur.
Right there with you on that. We’ve seen some incredible young talent through the years, but Wemby is an absolute genetic freak mixed with crazy talent, I’ve never seen anything like him. The aspect of his game I saw tonight that I love is he punishes double teams.
The only criticism I would make is he gets lost on defense a bit and I’m not sure Pop has figured out how to maximize his talent on the defensive end yet. When they figure out the defensive side of the ball, the league is in trouble.

He has some real charisma, which is strange as a Spurs fan.

It's only pre-season, and tonight it was against a bunch of G-Leaguers, but it's starting to feel like perhaps we are underestimating how good Wemby's may be his rookie year.

Agree, noticeably better.

We only have two games and Zach was going against (and trying to adjust) to another unicorn-type. We'll see.
Mentioned before, but I almost want to see a Cavs-like Bassey-Collins-Wemby lineup sometimes.

Team does better when wemby plays, period
-13 wemby on the bench
+16 wemby on the court
At one point in tonight's game
But I agree that Bass brings skillsets that are very complimentary to wemby's game
Let Bassey focus on blocks and boards and wemby can join in more selectively, thus conserving his stamina and energy for other areas.

Agree. Collins is simply a better player at this point than Bassey, but that's no surprise. Collins was clearly thrown off by Holmgren's height and movement.

Yeah. I know Victor is going to have ups and downs since he's still a 19 year old rookie trying to learn how to play in this league, but man he does things no one else in the NBA can.

Lotta people gonna be thrown off by Holmgren. Watching that first game plus his summer league he's pretty clearly got the upside to beat out SGA for being OKC's #1 option eventually, though I doubt it'll be this year given how good SGA already is.

Good to hear. They were atrocious, gave up 20+ offensive boards, just terrible. Need to somehow fix that crap.

Victor Wembanyama is 18-28 overall FG in first two preseason games
6-8 2fg game 1
9-10 2fg game 2
15-18 on 2fg in two preseason games
Including 11-11 in the paint espn claims!

I know Sidy Cissoko is pretty raw and can't shoot, but I think he has more to offer than Cedy Osman regardless. Sidy's defense and passing could be helpful. It's worth a look if nothing else.

I'm not saying Wemby is Jordan but the excitement he provides reminds me a lot like Jordan back in the day in the sense it feels like every game he's going to do something exciting that gets you out of your seat.

the rebounding will fix its self. Wemby looked better rebounding the second half. More adjustment than a problem IMO.

Bassey might be a better fit next to Wemby than Collins. Of course it’s only a 2 Game sample size, but they need somebody down low who does the dirty work and rebounds
I’d rather have Collins, he gives spacing with his 3pts shooting.
