man i hope this doesn't stop his momentum.
what a start to the season vassell has had
but now an injury will slow him up a bit. we'll see how he recovers from it.
Guys sure we agree Vassell is a key. When he is stroking shots it def helps the offense and Victor.
Sure, we want Ossi or whomever to step up in his place, we're not giving up.
For XMass besides sugarplums and silver bells one might have rightly envisioned .600 Spurs ball. Better? .600+?
Ok here is where we are at now.
Spurs' Gregg Popovich: Devin Vassell Likely 'Out for a While' with Groin Injury | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors | Bleacher Report

Groin can be a bad (chronic) injury unfortunately.
Pop all ready said he is going to be out for quite awhile - I guess we’re really going to see the mad scientist part of Pop out for the next several weeks

The quote I saw was "a little while". This should not stop the objective of seeing who fits where in the future.
If you listen to the Pop presser, it honestly doesn't sound as bad as it looks in text. I think they'll still be careful and MRI will tell everything but now I'm thinking 2-4 weeks instead of 4-6 tbh
Team doing too well, need Vassell to sit to get a high lottery pick. Then Wemby after Vassell returns.
Vassell is my Avatar and I wish him back the earliest. But the silver lining I hope is Pop reinserting Tre in the starting lineup, sliding Sochan to SF/PF. I like Sochan’s development as a facilitator and he has improved so much. It is safe to say he is a better Point-Forward now than before. But having a true PG will help to set-up Wemby better. Wemby was asking for touches last night. I think will see that more.
Idk about that.
Devin is by the best shooter in the starting lineup, replacing him with Tre is questionable.
It will probably be Malaki or Cedi if Malaki struggles.
Painful loss for a guy that is fun to watch and starting to get his due based on the extra exposure he gets from the media circus surrounding Wemby.
That’s probably what’s gonna happen since Pop is likely to keep his regular rotation and insert a player that he doesn’t use as much i.e. Champagnie or McD. But it’s evident last night how Wemby dominated with a true PG setting him up, the lobs, the pick and roll, things that Tre created by constantly moving ala Parker. It is too soon to abandon the Sochan PG experiment as I said before. But that’s before last night when Wemby was really demanding the ball especially in the last crucial minutes of the game. And Tre was able to find him everytime.
I think Tre starting, then Sochan sliding to PG when Tre sits. Stagger the PG between Tre/Sochan. I like to see more of Malaki whatever available minutes created.
was dan scared to say groin on the broadcast
Yeah, I would like to see Keldon at SG and see how Sochan handles the SF role;
PG. Tre
SG. Keldon
SF. Sochan
PF. Wemby
C. Collins
Yeah, I think most times a player is out 3 to 8 weeks - It sucks for Vassell as someone mentioned he was really getting some love from media. But it is a long season and Pop is always going to err on the side of caution as we defnintely never want to get anywhere near KY problem we had
You may have something there. Anything to get Sochan out of PG
Chance to see Champagnie starting. I really thought he was a lock to be a rotation player after the summer he had.
Disappointing for Vassell who was off to a great start.
Groin injuries are hard to shake off. Hopefully it's nothing serious but the fact that they want an MRI is worrisome.
Wouldn't be surprised to see him miss some weeks, and then you just have to hope he doesn't re-tweak it when he comes back.
Cedi also took his place in the rotation. Good time for Julian to get the nerves off.
Yeah, Cedi basically beat him out of the role everyone thought he would have - But to be honest he is not the same player that I saw the summer league I am hoping it's just really bad nerves....Hopefully our sports therapist can help him overcome this...
played terrible in preseason...But would like to see him get some playing time....See if his shooting is back..
Hallelujah!!
Wow day-to-day![]()
Only day-to-day, yay! Get well soon, Devin, we need you.
