Magic -10.5

[exstatic]

GSG

[spurraider21]

this team is lost without mcdermott

[LeBowen]

Good start.

[Frenchfred]

0 point, 0 rebound, 0 assist, 0 steal, 0 block but 0 TO. Good game

[Barfunk]

Wemby's minute restriction still has not been lifted. He's played 1 game in like the last 15 or so over 30 minutes (31 minutes).

[r0drig0lac]

nice floater by Wesley

[mo7888]

I really like Wesley's development.

[Guru of Nothing]

February 8th, 2024, 6:29 pm, Collins hit a bucket. Never forget.

[LeBowen]

Wesley looks better every game.

[Robz4000]

Really impressed with Wesley's growth tbh. If he develops a legit 3 point shot the sky's the limit for him.

[Leetonidas]

February 8th, 2024, 6:29 pm, Collins hit a bucket. Never forget.

And then blocked a shot.:wow highlight of his season tbh

[Leetonidas]

Really impressed with Wesley's growth tbh. If he develops a legit 3 point shot the sky's the limit for him.

He needs to develop a reliable layup first :lol

[Robz4000]

He needs to develop a reliable layup first :lol

His floater game is coming along. As long as he has a reliable finishing move he'll be fine; not everyone can be Tony at the rim.

[r0drig0lac]

Wesley looks fast like Leandro Barbosa

[CorrectCrusader]

So glad Wesley is coming along nicely. If he pans out that really helps our future

[spurraider21]

wesley with a bad pass/turnover, then an unnecessary reach to "help" wemby against wagner in the paint...

[CorrectCrusader]

You can tell our players watch manu highlights in their freetime, because they try to make passes only he could make

[CorrectCrusader]

There ya go Wesley! Lowkey great pestering by Vic there

[spurraider21]

comes back with a nice defensive possession and good finish while drawing a foul

[CorrectCrusader]

How did Paolo make the allstar game lol

[spurraider21]

wesley gotta box out suggs there

wesley's fingerprints have been on every possession for either team for the last few minutes :lol

[CorrectCrusader]

wesley gotta box out suggs there

Such a high ceiling, such a low floor. :downspin:

[Kawhi Duncan]

How did Paolo make the allstar game lol

Don't ask too early...He is good...

[Frenchfred]

there is no question that this team needs a reliable scorer; Vassel, Sochan and Johnson are not consistent

[CorrectCrusader]

It looks like Pop gave Wesley the green light to go hog wild

[Kawhi Duncan]

Collins with the stellar rim defense

[CorrectCrusader]

What is up with our team leaving dudes wide open at the 3 point line lmao wtf

[spurraider21]

does wembanyama really exist?

[Robz4000]

Welp, that escalated quickly.

[spurraider21]

zollins with an impressive block? :wow

[Kawhi Duncan]

zollins with an impressive block? :wow

Fluke tbh

[Kawhi Duncan]

does wembanyama really exist?

Nope... We gotta treat him like a china doll

[Frenchfred]

and just like that, a 17 point difference at half-time.

[Leetonidas]

Another embarrassing half of basketball for this sad excuse for a professional team. Our 135 million dollar player has 0 points on 0-5 shooting at the half. Sad

[Proxy]

wagner has that david west bitch attitude

[Knoxxx]

Hot garbage I’m skipping the second half. That first half was over an hour of my life I want back.

[Kurgan]

Another embarrassing half of basketball for this sad excuse for a professional team. Our 135 million dollar player has 0 points on 0-5 shooting at the half. Sad

These nights where he chucks like Kobe are getting tiresome

[ginobilized]

The good:
Wesley is so quick defensively and having a good offensive game
JC looks like a basketball player

The bad:
Most everything else
Keldon looks like he thinks he's the 2nd coming of Paul Pierce when he call his own number for brick after brick
We can't blame McDermott anymore

[Raven]

wesley and champagnie continue to build upon solid performances, nice to see sochan drain a triple. Keldon and Vassell got destroyed though. Victor with a 0 rebound half was odd.

[CorrectCrusader]

Wemby left the game when it was 35 - 38

lol.

[Thomas82]

No rebounds for Wemby in the 1st half is shocking.

[spurraider21]

These nights where he chucks like Kobe are getting tiresome
5 FGA in a half is chucking like kobe?

[spurraider21]

vic gets his man in the air with a pump fake and the possession ends with him airballing a turnaround fade away jumper...

[Kawhi Duncan]

Pop has become a horrible defensive coach

[Kawhi Duncan]

vic gets his man in the air with a pump fake and the possession ends with him airballing a turnaround fade away jumper...

It's like he was scared to dunk... Smh

[Cardinal]

Really bad game for Wemby

[Kurgan]

5 FGA in a half is chucking like kobe?

I was talking about the inefficiency and shot selection. He was 0-5 at the half. Seemed like he was on pace for another one of his 1-13 type nights.

[Robz4000]

Worst game of Wemby's career by far. He's hitting that rookie wall hard.

[Thomas82]

Really bad game for Wemby


It looks like that rookie wall is hitting him hard.

[Kurgan]

Really bad game for Wemby

Really bad game for everyone. Practically unwatchable. How Pop gets away with this shit is incredible.

[rascal]

Really bad game for Wemby

Not used to playing back to back games.

[Robz4000]

Vassell channelling his inner Manu.

[Spurminator]

This is why you don't give up on Vassell. Players who can score 23+ in a quarter against a good team are not a dime a dozen.

[hoopdreams11]

happy for Wesley really showing some improvement

[SPURt]

Sean - “they just put a saddle on Vassell”

I like how you think Sean, ride that mustang till he spits :lobt2:

[Raven]

devin went stupid lol

[spurraider21]

so did wemby get credited for missed FGA but not the o-reb on those missed putbacks or what?

[itzsoweezee]

Really bad game for Wemby

Isaac gives him trouble. He played well against Wemby the last game too

[Raven]

so did wemby get credited for missed FGA but not the o-reb on those missed putbacks or what?
think boxscore isn't working

[james evans]

Really bad game for everyone. Practically unwatchable. How Pop gets away with this shit is incredible.
He's literally the only man in america with job security until he's 80

[spurraider21]

its actually hilarious how much better wemby is at pull-up 3's than he is in catch and shoot spots

[spurraider21]

:lmao baptized by mo wagner

[Frenchfred]

Jesus Christ, Wemby and his TOs are a big problem.

[My Fault]

This is why you don't give up on Vassell. Players who can score 23+ in a quarter against a good team are not a dime a dozen.
He’s also only 23…

[spurraider21]

Jesus Christ, Wemby and his TOs are a big problem.
he took getting dunked on personally and forced the issue on the ensuing possession

[Kawhi Duncan]

Wemby getting bitched

[Thomas82]

Wemby's still getting shut out on the glass?

[Raven]

tre just awful as always

[spurraider21]

lol ingles scoring on wemby. he's having a really rough day at the office

[Frenchfred]

Wemby hitting the rookie wall will probably start playing like the beginning of the season. The Spurs might not win a game during this rodeo trip.

[CorrectCrusader]

Leading with the shoulder is just completely fine now

[My Fault]

Thankfully All-Star break is coming because Wemby clearly is gassed

[r0drig0lac]

Wemby with a monstar dunk lol

[CorrectCrusader]

Vic was in the air I doubt this gets overturned

[spurraider21]

Thankfully All-Star break is coming because Wemby clearly is gassed
he's participating in multiple events :lol

[CorrectCrusader]

Still blows my mind we beat the timberpuppies

[itzsoweezee]

Mo Wagner is a little bitch. Fuck that scrub

[thiste]

Vic was calling for the lob for 30 minutes then Vassell decides to pass it's too late and it gets intercepted smh

[MultiTroll]

:flipoff:flipoff:flipoff:madrun:madrun:madrun:madr un:ihit:ihit:ihit:cuss

Wama tweaked something trying to catch that super shitty entry pass.
6 min left in 4th.
He took himself out.

This better be minor or i will lay an absolute ass kicking on Popazit.

[Robz4000]

:lol Collins

[MultiTroll]

Vic was calling for the lob for 30 minutes then Vassell decides to pass it's too late and it gets intercepted smh
Sniffers: :cry:cry:cry but but but Vassell is developing. :cry:cry:cry

[Dex]

Zach Collins is that guy in pickup who runs around a lot but doesn't actually score or defend

[CorrectCrusader]

Vassell can just turn it on man, incredible

[MultiTroll]

Stat padding bitch is going into full Chucky Forbes mode now.

[My Fault]

he's participating in multiple events :lol
:lol oh yeah

[Manu-of-steel]

Branham is more invisible than Champaigne

[Dex]

Vassell can just turn it on man, incredible

He's as streaky as they come. Scoreless in the first half, puts up 30 in the second half.

The potential is there, but dude still has a tendency to take high difficulty shots and wants to act like he is Kevin Durant out there.

[FkLA]

Mo Wagner's coming off like Vic is his super bowl, tbh.

[rankingtear]

Vic minutes restriction and no back to back is actually good for him he got his second wind because of that. Now he hit a wall again.

[Jordan Jackson]

Wemby cannot cover for everyone defensively. The guy is running around trying to help everyone. This was not sustainable. You have to get players who can defend.

[My Fault]

Vic minutes restriction and no back to back is actually good for him he got his second wind because of that. Now he hit a wall again.
Wtf, no! You embrace the suck and grow from it. He’s just going to do that shit for the rest of his life?! I can tell a lot of you have never done anything competitive in your life, expect it all to just fall into your lap the moment you give on try :lol

[spursparker9]

Wemby is off to a slow start in Feb...

[rankingtear]

Wtf, no! You embrace the suck and grow from it. He’s just going to do that shit for the rest of his life?! I can tell a lot of you have never done anything competitive in your life, expect it all to just fall into your lap the moment you give on try :lol

I am just stating facts.

[Slippy]

I was talking about the inefficiency and shot selection. He was 0-5 at the half. Seemed like he was on pace for another one of his 1-13 type nights.

Pls inform us about all these 1 of 13 type games hes had?.

Some spurs fans nit picking the fuk out Vassel's game is just pure hate or jealousy.

He playing the best ball of his short career so far. The improvement from last season is clear as day and that ceiling hasnt been reached yet.

Aside from Wemby , DVs elevation to another level should be appreciated. Going into next season hopefully they start to win so his detractors can go into hibernation and as spurs fans we all got more to look forward to.

Winning 6 more games with slightly better scrubs.

[Slippy]

Thats the rub . Which direction are spurs heading.

They just got rid of their best shooter to stockpile on 2nd rounders. Maybe to also sign Barlow which i look as positive.

Their geratric coach experimented to start the season on their PG posi.

Winning doessnt seem to be the priority. Thats for sure.

Next season our president of basketball needs to make some serious decisions

[heyheymymy]

Yeah Vassell is well into his development window but I can't wait to see Devin after one more offseason. He was limited to just 38 games in 22-23 on the knee injury so that's like half a season behind schedule. There's still time imho

He clearly is ascending especially after factoring in tank disinterest this year

[JPB]

I don't beleive that's gonna work with Wemby honestly in the long term. Vassel wants his stats and is doing his own thing. The chemistry between the two isn"t there.

People say Wemby is gassed, but is he only gassed or also pissed? And I would be gassed too if I was running all over the floor on defense and offense as a freaking generational talent only just to see my guards stat pad in a 14 point loss. This is his team not Devin's. that's what people mean when they say losing is discouraging and you do'nt even try...

0 shots, in the 4th the two games before... I mean, there's something wrong on this team and I really do'nt beleive Wemby will be in for this that long. Kid is a winner and Pop ITV sure didn't match with that. If spurs believe Vic is OK for 2-3 years of losing, being ignored on offense, and not making the POs with a bunch of wannabee HOFers...

And it's not just Wemby... A 4 page game thread for a game with Victor freaking Wembanayama... People don't even care anymore, they lost interest, certainly reason why Pop gave that ITV to L'Equipe, since they had wind of the lost of interest and frustration in France, and honestly for all the NBA fans... Wemby is not just your random top rookie you develop in 4 years, he's already ready and should be your PRIORITY, not teaching freaking fundamentals to 4-5 year role players who may not be there in 2 years... And it really doesn't feel like Wemby is spurs priority right now. They don't respect the kid talent and dedication to the game and being great, potentially sucking him off of a ROTY, which I'm sure spurs don't care about. But what about Vic?

[Dejounte]

Spurstalk having four pages for a game thread or twenty pages have no bearing on how interested the majority of Spurs fans are. This collection of dumbasses on this forum, including myself, is only a small minority.
