Game Thread: Spurs (17-16) at Nuggets (19-13) January 3, 2025 | 8:00 PM CT / 4:00 AM Riga / 4:00 PM Hawaii

[LeBowen]

Another low IQ play by Vassell. He should have just let the clock expire. WTF! Good defense by Vassell, but low IQ play not allowing clock to expire

Just what I was thinking, left them with 1.7 on the clock.

[thiste]

Dope win, but Vassell shouldn’t have scored but ran away from defenders and let time expire. Almost a disaster

You're not wrong but they could only tie it

[baseline bum]

not his fault Champagnie stepped out of bounds. That was the right pass to make

The right pass to make would have been giving it to CP3 to initiate that critical possession. Victor bailing our asses out though with that assist to Keldon and the game saving steal.

[Arcadian]

When Wemby did the fake 3 into an assist, he was literally sucking the defense out to him like a gravitational force.

Then he shut down the MVP on a game winning shot attempt.

We have one man who can do both of those things.

[SPURt]

Wembanyama = Curry + Bill Russell in one player

Totally agree, Wemby is def Curry and Russell’s love child

[cutewizard]

We won against the refs

That's cool

[timtonymanu]

Holy Wemby blocking Jokic to steal a win

Yeah he did about as well as you could do on Jokic and didn’t foul out.

[Spurs Homer]

Wemby has to “finish” his statement tomorrow night!

We have the GOAT!

[ducks]

Right now Wemby should work on his turnovers

He needs to work on making America great again !
He is making the nba great again !

[ace3g]

Plays like this are why shooting 3s must be part of Wemby's game.

[Dex]

I just saw the boxscore. I had no idea Jokic had 41 and 18. He definitely fills the stat sheet in a stealthy manner.

BTW, the officiating when it comes to Jokic is one-sided. He committed at least 3 obvious fouls on Collins and at least 1 on Wemby, but the refs refused to call the fouls. He absolutely got MVP treatment.

After those 2 early fouls, it's like they were afraid to call another one

[cutewizard]

Devin redeemed himself a little bit

And 9 assists... I was just about to comment that we held his assists down and then I looked at the boxscore myself

Dude definitely quietly fills it up

[Guru of Nothing]

Denver must hate the Spurs.

[John B]

I cant believe we won that after the closes losses the past 2 weeks

That Champ TO with stepping off the line was I thought was going to give the game, again.

[Biggems]

When Champ stepped out, I threw up my hands in disgust and mailed this game in. I was expecting Denver to make a 3 or get an and 1. Then, I expected the Spurs to brick the last shot.

I am pleasantly surprised.

Go Spurs Go

[MannyIsGod]

Team worst -18, and made a breakaway off of Wemby's D isn't going to earn him flowers

And TBH should have ran to the corner instead of dunking it

Bro you can't hate on him for this game. His offense kept the Spurs in the game with Wemby on the bench. I don't care what plus minus says he was a big time reason we won tonight.

[Obstructed_View]

Another game julian screwed up


..... spoke to soon

Such a Spurstalk take.

[ducks]

I cannot believe that we have the greatest basketball player of all time on our team RIGHT NOW

Nothing like badwagoner fans

Yeah, and Zach Collins was big time. He got that rebound and made that layup.

[Allan Rowe vs Wade]

Holy Wemby!! How much of you can fit in my butt?? I want to know!

😳

[vy65]

y'all still wanna talk about Devin?

The steal was nice, but if he were smart he would have dribbled out and not gone for the dunk. He gave them a shot that he didn’t need to give.

[Kawhi Duncan]

ATP we have enough of a sample point where we should seriously have Sochan be the energy guy off the bench, or trade him for someone that helps Wemby's game even more... We missed shots this game, but for the most part we got where we wanted to go against a hot Nuggets team, because the spacing was better

[John B]

Totally agree, Wemby is def Curry and Russell’s love child

And babysat by Gervin with those finger rolls

[ducks]

A very satisfying win. The guys didn’t fold the last stretch. Great job.

Go spurs go
