Game Thread: Spurs vs. McNuggets - 4/12/2024 7PM Central (3AM Riga)

[Dex]

2 games left in the season, Wemby should be back to face off against Jokic again.

TIME TO DUNK THESE BOYS IN SOME MCNASTY SAUCE YEEEHAWWW

[LeBowen]

In other news, Celtics are sitting everyone, Hornets could win that game.

[Robz4000]

Behooves both teams for the Nuggets to win tbh, then go hard on Sunday against the Pistons to end the season on a high note.

[skin27]

Is wemby playing tonight?

Not listed on the injury report

[BatManu20]

Pop said Wemby was unhappy with being forced to sit last game (as he has been all season) so I doubt he sits again tbh. I think Wemby plays in our last 2 games, even if it is on a minutes restriction.

Fck that minute restrictions! It will just fck up wemby's stats and accolades

[Mugen]

Any time he gets experience going up against Joker, it's a good thing tbh.

[Strategic]

Damn nugs need the W. Like to see the good guys stay in it.

[Pauleta14]

Pop said he'd like to avoid playing Wemby the last game vs DET , considering the early tip off time close to a BtoB but knows he'll have to face a fight

Today could be Victor's last game of the season

Enjoy

[Thomas82]

Is wemby playing tonight?

Yes

[Dex]

I like the fact that Wemby can shoot the three, but he better be workin' on that shot all summer.

[Dex]

Mamu is basically what we want Sochan to be already

[heyheymymy]

Mamu making offseason decisions more difficult

[Thomas82]

Mamu making offseason decisions more difficult

He's one I wouldn't mind keeping.

[thiste]

So I'd like Victor to keep some stats for this season, he's currently averaging 21.3 ppg, I'd like him to keep over 21.2 (tied with Luka's rookie season). For that he needs to average 17.5ppg for the last 2 games, I think this should be ok. He needs to average 21 to keep 21.3 for the season.

In the same vein, I'd like him to keep 1.3 steals. For that he needs 3 steals in the last two games. He's already got one early in this one, so... two more please.

He should be able to keep his 3.6 blocks average. For that he needs 4 blocks over the next two game. Overall he's at 252 before tonight, I hope he can hit 260 total.

My last wish is pretty much granted already, is that he stays under 30 minutes per game over the season. To go over 30 he'd need to play 45.5 minutes in both remaining games and that's not gonna happen.

All these would round up his season averages pretty well, so lets hope he makes it!

[heyheymymy]

Wanna see Wemby back down the smaller Braun but that spin jumper was nasty

[MultiTroll]

Wama trying to hard to be da Man again.

Missed dunk he should have come down and gathered. Or just tapped it in.

Next trip the Kobme style totally forced 3 brick.

[LeBowen]

Mamu having all those DNPs is ridiciulous, another one of Pop's masterstrokes.

[MultiTroll]

Grahmn totally looks for Wama.

Something the other putzes should have been doing all year long.

Playing under 30 minutes is not good especially if they do it on wemby in his entire career.

What a shitty pass attempt by Tre the Point gawd to Wama in the post.

I don't think he'll play on Sunday, Pop doesn't want to

[thiste]

Playing under 30 minutes is not good especially if they do it on wemby in his entire career.

I'm not advocating for him to be restricted his whole career. But keeping his minutes under 30 for this season makes his other stats look more impressive.

[poopbox]

Mamu is a better basketball player at pretty much every facet of the game than Sochan. But he will probably be gone and Sochan will be back next season to scrub it up cause he was drafted 9th

[thiste]

I don't think he'll play on Sunday, Pop doesn't want to

If he doesn't play on sunday it stays true but for just this game. He needs one more steal, 21 points, 2 blocks.

[Pauleta14]

Also Pop thinks Brahman had a wonderful season, which will feed a certain thread :lol

Exceptionnally long pre game interview, many lol moments with the french journalists


https://youtu.be/s1BKw0yF3no?si=hXwWW8hyXPXbzVC6

[Thomas82]

I hope Pop is ready for the fight he'll have on his hands after tonight. LMAO

[spurraider21]

wemby just out there chucking

[CorrectCrusader]

these refs man what the fuck is their problem

[spursparker9]

:lol Every PG aiming for 60 on us

[Pauleta14]

Tre and Wesley are too small to defend on anyone...

[212094ever]

Fuck these Wemby/Collins lineups

[LeBowen]

Just six more quarters left, this is rough on fundamental level.

[Pauleta14]

wemby just out there chucking

He's nervous, Nuggets make him work a lot and he's got the worst players on an already poor roster to help him :lol

He needs to chill

[onechance87]

tre,wesley,branam,Bad at shooting,Bad at creating offense and not that good at defending.Waisting our
time trying to devope them.

[Joseph Kony]

that went as expected

[Pauleta14]

:lol Every PG aiming for 60 on us

It's ridiculous and some (a lot!) Spurs fans are happy with Tre...

[exstatic]

Fuck these Wemby/Collins lineups

They don’t have a choice with Devin, Jeremy, Cedi, and Keldon all out. If you don’t play them together, one or more of our gleaguers will play 20 minutes.

[SPURt]

It seems like Wemby wanted to will the Spurs to a first quarter lead and then was like “good to know I can do that” and then stopped lol

[spurraider21]

obviously with this depleted lineup on an already bad roster wemby has to try to compensate, but early shot clock 3's are the closest thing he has to a "go-to move" as a rookie

im sure his shooting will get better, we already know he does better on pull-up 3's than catch and shoot... but really hope he ends up with a higher percentage shot with which he has a good comfort level

[baseline bum]

God this team is so stupid. Yeah Tre, don't throw it to Victor when he's 3 feet from the basket with small on him. Ugh and another crap year of let's play a shit roster and win 20 games for a high draft pick.

[Pauleta14]

Just play Bouyea at this point

[tonight...you]

God this team is so stupid. Yeah Tre, don't throw it to Victor when he's 3 feet from the basket with small on him. Ugh and another crap year of let's play a shit roster and win 20 games for a high draft pick.
Your avi is Legend.

[MultiTroll]

FFS Wemby has to beg for the pass and finally gets it. After being ignored by Cissko and another scrub.

Cissko is so new to Wama, will cut his a small amount of slack because i dont think Cissko is a selfish turn like KJ and Vassel and Tre were.

[CorrectCrusader]

HOLY FUCK THIS MAN IS SOMETHING ELSE

[Pauleta14]

WHAT THE FUK IS HAPENING ??????????

[MultiTroll]

3 straight treys by Wama.

In your face.

Only Cedi Osman, Sandro Mamukelashvili and Dominck Barlow will be off the books this summer, while Devonte’ Graham, Julian Champagnie and Charles Bassey are on partially guaranteed deals.

[ginobilized]

Mamu is awesome
Smart, active, dynamic
Hope he stays

[ace3g]

Agree to a certain extent just thought it was odd since he was in position for the contest.

Has that Big East dna (as does Champagne)

[spursparker9]

Mamu earning big payday...Dunno if Spurs will keep him

[r0drig0lac]

Mamu looks like a hybrid Manu/Diaw out there...high QI

[ace3g]

If Mamu threw that down!!!

[Rosewood]

Mamu is awesome
Smart, active, dynamic
Hope he stays Yeah it’s a tragedy he didn’t play more during the season. He also has great chemistry with Vic.

[spursparker9]

Murray turning into Curry. How is this guy not an All Star yet :lol

[ace3g]

Mamu you can be in motion for the offense but that was definitely a moving screen...

[heyheymymy]

Manu 21 pts 7 in the 4q

[ace3g]

Mamu 3!!!

[spurraider21]

wembys been pretty ineffective on defense today

[spurraider21]

FUCK THE NUGGETS GO SPURS GO!

[r0drig0lac]

Wemby is crazy lol

[timtonymanu]

I couldn’t care less about getting a loss for a higher draft pick when none of those guys will be as good as Wemby anyway.

[Pauleta14]

wow what a win!!

Who would have expected that half way the 3rdQ?

[Spurs Homer]

FTN!

[heyheymymy]

damn the whole crew is feeling vibes

what a great win

[cutewizard]

[sananspursfan21]

[Ef-man]

WOW

[spursparker9]

Joker was quite passive and looking to pass. But we take the win :lol

[sananspursfan21]

I know he’s not a franchise altering player but can we please keep Devontae??

[Manu-of-steel]

Wow!!! What a game!!!!

[cutewizard]

winning against the world champions

that is something!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Pauleta14]

:lol Pop not calling a timeout for the tank and Tre/Graham still pulled it off.

No Pop isn't tanking, he loves not calling TO in those situations and taking advantage of defenses being not set

It requires to have the right player for it tho, remember Sochan in Cleveland for ex

[scott]

Wins like this are better than a couple extra percentage points for the right to take some crappy 19 year old. Go Spurs Go! Close out the season with another dub on Sunday!

[cutewizard]

Mammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmuuuuuu uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[mo7888]

No Vassell...No KJ....No Branham and we beat a full denver squad trying to win...

There's a message in there somewhere....

[Biggems]

You know, maybe Pop should have used Mamu more this season. He and Wemby have great chemistry out there. I really hope we bring him back again next season. Maybe we can sign him to a 2-3 year deal.

[cutewizard]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPAXuB62p8Q

[jesterbobman]

That was awesome.

Not calling a TO at the end is the right move. You're not going to get better than a fast break attempt with the whole opposing team bar their PG hanging back.

[Rosewood]

Spurs have now beaten Thunder, Nuggets and Wolves this season.

[Biggems]

we are playing Detroit. no way we lose. they are the best tanking team I have ever seen. as great at the bad boys and early 2000s pistons were, this group is the exact opposite. they make the 80s and 90s clippers look like world beaters.

[itzsoweezee]

What a game. Mamu at PF looks like a great fit next to wemby

[baseline bum]

JFC that third quarter from Victor then that fourth from Mamu.

Rolling back Mamu as the starting 4 next season and we win 74 games

Yeah, that out the window, and we’ll likely be coin flipping for 4/5 if Portland loses tonight.

[Jordan Jackson]

Mamu is who the Spurs coaching staff thought Sochan would be/might be.

Mamu’s defense might be questionable - but he is a threat to shoot and rebounds. He’s not trying to be a star. He simply makes Victor’s life easier.

[Arcadian]

Mamuyama lineups are the best!

[Biggems]

the 5 second violation was inexcusable.

you are the defending champs, two time league mvp, all-star guard and you have 1 TO left for emergency. the inbounder should have burned the last TO.

his stupidity was our gain. Our D was outstanding on that inbounds play.

GO SPURS GO

[cutewizard]

cool

[Biggems]

Mamuyama lineups are the best!

Mamuyama.....sounds like a dish you get at a Japanese restaurant

[heyheymymy]

what a sequence:

Jokic miss sends the rebound along the baseline which Tre Jones saves, 7 secs left, pushes down court to an open Graham who drives and check out the hang time on Graham as he squares his shoulders in mid air to get a nice good shot off with the sweet little floater that only leaves 0.9 remaining. Looked like the Frost exploded after that, fans were raging lol

[cutewizard]

we are readdddddddddyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

for next season

[sananspursfan21]

I think one of my favorite things about Wemby is not just that he’s already a historically elite blocker, but that he’s also an incredibly clutch blocker. It almost seems like if it’s the opponent’s star player and it’s a close game, you can bet the farm he’s stopping it :wow

[scott]

we are playing Detroit. no way we lose. they are the best tanking team I have ever seen. as great at the bad boys and early 2000s pistons were, this group is the exact opposite. they make the 80s and 90s clippers look like world beaters.

They are about to win tonight and have no incentive to throw the game on Sunday, they've already locked up the best possible odds. It will all depend on whether Wemby plays.

[cutewizard]

Mamu >>>>> point forward

[Mr. Body]

I'll miss Graham. I don't get why he and Mamu didn't get more play, and no, it's not because of 'tanking.' At least now the staff seem to get that Mamu plays really well next to Wembanyama. Probably a pretty big decision about who moves on other than DG.

[heyheymymy]

Spurs have now beaten Thunder, Nuggets and Wolves this season.

Going back to the Wemby tech

Was kinda noticing that Murray was gesturing like "get up, get up" after Gordon knocks Wemby down and a few plays later Wemby took the tech after ramming Murray to the ground. Prob reading too much into this but after the GG Jackson quotes about Wemby trash taking “‘Go back up. Go. Go. You scared. You scared. You scared.’”

Makes me think Wemby has a bit of that double dog in him. Going to need that late in the post season so hope so.

[mudyez]

I love how Wemby is rocking his jersey after every win. It's like he is telling everyone that he loves being a Spur.

People are saying “keep Graham” but guys like that are a dime a dozen. He could easily be replaced by draft time. What’s of value right now is seeing how a point guard that can shoot changes the team dynamic. Reed or Dilly can fill that hole easily, and likely provide even more than what Graham is giving the team right now.

Julian is really settling in and is a nice player to keep going forward. Getting Mamu on the same contract should be the plan.

Let Wesley go.

Choose between Barlow and Bassey to keep.

Give Sidy another year.

Give Branham another year.

Trade Collins ASAP.

[Dex]

Wemby has it.

You can't teach it.

Yes, he's 7-foot-something. He is the runaway ROY. He is in the DPOY conversation, and will definitely be All-Defense first team in his first season.

But the most important thing...is that the dude hates to lose. He hates to be beat. And he takes it personally, and backs it up. That is IT.

It's a hard thing to find in a player of his caliber...and a good thing to look forward to.

[Leetonidas]

Great game

[heyheymymy]

I love how Wemby is rocking his jersey after every win. It's like he is telling everyone that he loves being a Spur.

People talk about Wemby leaving but I love how he points to the Spur on his jersey this season. He seems like he has bought in and it's huge if he views it as family.

yup....we need a pg who can shoot.Either dilly or reed.Hopefully front office dont fuck it up.Either of them
would be upgrades over tre or branham.Just easier to break a team down when you got a pg who can shoot.

[barakz21]

What the actual fuck. I had to put the game down a few minutes before the end of the 2nd. Peeked the score and Denver was up double digits. Next thing I know, I get a notification that OKC is back as the 1 seed. Imagine my surprise to see they beat the Nuggets, and by a point too!

Julian is really settling in and is a nice player to keep going forward. Getting Mamu on the same contract should be the plan.

Let Wesley go.

Choose between Barlow and Bassey to keep.

Give Sidy another year.

Give Branham another year.

Trade Collins ASAP.

also think keldon needs to be traded.He just hurts this this team always trying to do to much.

I think it's awesome that before the season everyone was worried about Wembys weight being a weakness against a player like Jokic. It doesn't fucking matter because Wemby is simply HIM

[SPURt]

I passed out after that game, woke up to drink some Gatorade and change my underwear. The NBA is in trouble come October.

Wemby played 37 minutes tonight. Thats how he should play next season and beyond.

would of been an allstar and mvp candidate for sure.And we seem to better when wemby running the
show and not vassell or keldon.

I love how Wemby is rocking his jersey after every win. It's like he is telling everyone that he loves being a Spur.
Maybe because he's not use to winning.. wait until the spurs start winning again . Itll become normal to him.

He looked good but probably because Pop did not let him play last game against OK..

[The Truth #6]

Could easily be wrong, but some improved shooting and passing from Mamu and Graham really seems helpful. Also, makes me wonder about Devin calling his shot too much now that we finally"see what we have". Hilarious it took the last few games in tank mode to finally see all our options. Hate to say it. I thought Mamu was gone but maybe not?

Going back to the Wemby tech

Was kinda noticing that Murray was gesturing like "get up, get up" after Gordon knocks Wemby down and a few plays later Wemby took the tech after ramming Murray to the ground. Prob reading too much into this but after the GG Jackson quotes about Wemby trash taking “‘Go back up. Go. Go. You scared. You scared. You scared.’”

Makes me think Wemby has a bit of that double dog in him. Going to need that late in the post season so hope so.

You’re right Murray was calling for a flop after Aaron rammed him and stood over him. They were mushing him all game and generally being very Detroit-y. Denver plays stout defense with attendant mind games.

He's a 20 year old, he can play 40 minutes every night

Best win of the year.

Agreed. Also noticed when Gordon knocked Wemby down, as soon as Wemby got back up he went over to Gordon next play and towered over him pushing into him for a second and it looked like a warning. Then the message tech on Murray next if I recall correctly.

This says a lot about Wemby soaking in San Antonio. He loves the city as much as TP and Bobo did. It might not be the dream season that he would hope for his rookie year. But I think he gets it. It would be hard for PATFO not to be all-in this off-season. No more tanking after this season. They wouldn’t want to disappoint Wemby having another losing season next year.

The way Wemby talked about Mamu. Mamu is definitely back. The fans love him. And it’s hard not to see Bobo in him. He’s only 24 and should only get even better too.

He put up stats that only Kareem put up, but played most of the year on huge minute restrictions. I doubt he will have to deal with those restrictions next season. Look out NBA, the silver and black spaceship will be delivering a huge alien to your cities for years to come.

Yeah this is a great, great sign. There seems to be great understanding between Wemby and the FO. Pop's comments of improving the team "whatever ways needed" comes to mind. Ever since Wemby's "ascension" it's been obvious that the tanking is over after this draft.

Who'd you like to see brought in FA/trade if possible?

Micah was in the house to witness that one last night.
