Total Turnovers 25 16 Points Off Turnovers 34 6
Realistically you’d like to see us play better. Because that was pretty awful in these losses. But losing is the best thing for this franchise right now. It’s going to take a couple years at least to build this thing up. And we desperately need more high-end talent. Another top-10 or even top-5 pick would be great for us tbh.
So of course Westbrook hit all kinds of 3s against us
Nephew welcoming Wemby to reach out to him for advice.
just watched the game ... ouch
First blowout loss and it won't be the last one.
At no point of this offseason, Wright made a move to make the team compe ive this season. Even a team like Detroit, 17 wins in 2022-2023, made more to be good this season by trading a second round pick for Monte Morris.
Among the top 4 "dead money" players, 3 (Bullock, Payne and Birch) are paid by Spurs. The other one is Kevin Porter and he has been waived for reasons we all know. Add Primo to that list and Spurs are paying $29M in dead money.
Pop isn't coaching to win. When he decides to start Sochan at PG, he knows damn well that it will hurt a lot the team short term wise. He's ready to sacrifice the current team for a future benefit (which I don't really see, but it's another subject). The whole "letting Wembanyama figuring what he can/can't do by himself" plan, is also hurting the team.
I would really like to know what is the deal with Devonte Graham. He hasn't even played in the garbage time tonight.
This kind of loss isn't surprising. It's the logical result of moves made by Pop and Wright. They are going very far in the rebuilding process, future will tell if it was too far.
Just got back to San Diego from the game… a few observations, not related to actual game:
-I won’t buy baseline seats (I was in the second row behind the 3 rows that are on the floor) again.the basket actually gets in the way of being able to see the game.
-After the game, tons of people went over to the Spurs tunnel to see Wemby, and he got lots of cheers when announced. The hype is real.
-After the game they interview Russ on the court as the player of the game, and they asked him his thoughts on Wemby. I didn’t really hear his answer, but it is just amazing to me that to be asked about an opposing rookie in your player of the game interview.
-Staples is a massively better arena than Frost Bank Center, both in the infrastructure and the in-game entertainment. The Clippers intro was a West-Coast Rap medley, not YALL READY FOR THIS. It’s like comparing a new BMW to a 1997 Chevy Impala. Hope the Spurs take some notes if a new arena is coming.
-In person, Wemby seems even bigger than he does on TV. Towered over Zubac and Plumlee.
what's the NBA record for turnovers? Cause I think the Spurs just broke it
Since 1990 the Spurs have had 25 games in which they turned the ball over 24 or more times. They are 12-13 in those games:

i've been frustrated by Wemby's lack of minutes also but in looking at him last night, you could see how gassed he was. he was getting pushed and beat down in the block all night. it may just be pop getting Wemby's body acclimated to the physicality and speed of the NBA game. i hope that's the case at least.

Hmmm, like only play 20 games a year?
i think one of the requirements to run the Spurs entertainment and music has to be that you are at least 20 years behind in pop culture.Just got back to San Diego from the game… a few observations, not related to actual game:
