With that, they, amazingly, rank in the bottom 5 in all four factors (https://www.nba.com/stats/teams/four-factors?CF=EFG_PCT_RANK*GE*26:FTA_RATE_RANK*GE*26: TM_TOV_PCT_RANK*GE*26&dir=A&sort=OREB_PCT) on offense. No team has done that (and only seven teams have ranked in the bottom 10 in all four) over a full season in the 27 previous years for which we have play-by-play data.

Speaks to what I've been saying: They've somehow assembled a group of young players that have no redeeming qualities. They can't create for themselves or others, shoot even spot up, never mind pullup (Vassell can, but I mean in general) or off movement, put pressure on the rim, get to the line or defend. They also lack athleticism, explosiveness, strength, etc.

But at least they come off as a bunch of choir boys who fit the narrow minded ideal of a Spur. That's all that seems to matter around here.

This is exactly why even rebuilding teams don’t put a bunch of <25 year olds on the court at the same time. Young players don’t know what they are doing. They need to be guided by vets, not a 70+ year old coach

telling u our guards in tre and branham cant shoot which make it harder to create shots
for themselves or there teammates..We gotta make a major change try granham and wesley..
Not really an upgrade,But its time for a major change...Maybe even try david duke jr bit..
Wouldnt try giving mamu or barlow some playing time...Hoping champ waking up to
continue making shots

Chuckers. We're a team of chuckers, and turnstile D.

Make a good band name...The Turnstiles. Or The Chuckers. Or put the O and the D together and you've got the Turnstile Chuckers.

The Spurs have outscored their opponents by 23.4 points per 100 possessions in 140 total minutes with Wembanyama, Tre Jones and Devin Vassell on the floor, but have been outscored by 15.0 per 100 in 530 minutes with two of the three on the floor and by 24.0 per 100 in 513 minutes with only one of the three on the floor.

Golly gee just what should we do about this?
