    May as well play the man!

    It is not like giving him some burn would hamstring our offense.

    Worth one point thanks to the technical foul.

    Doesn't act like he's been there before, because he hasn't.

    Gayest taunt in the universe the first time he doesn't get his stuffed back in his face.

    Give this kid a break. He is on his 2nd year. Already he’s Spurs better point-of-attack defender. Once and IF he gets it all together, he’ll be a great addition to the team.

    I actually think Pop kinda of screwed him as he was such a project that he should have been in the G League all of last year and the start of this year. He had a lot of things to work on and I thought that was what the G League was for? If he could just slow his brain down a little bit and understand he is not MJ on offense I think he could make a great bench guy cause his defense is legit.

    the kind of player pop needs to keep and develop. He can push the pace not like Sochan, turnovers will happen with Blake what is the difference now... Can't teach speed and he can motor....he is worth the risk.. jmho

    And then he was given all off season to develop and showed up doing all the same stupid . Seriously, the taunt after that dunk tells me he's too goddamned stupid to be an NBA player.

    Give Wesley a chance to swipe at the ball instead of getting back on defense like everybody else!
    I guess one good thing is he has played within himself in NBA garbage time this year.
    I got emotional during a Summer League game reacting like it was 6 but I am still curious about him. And I love Tre don’t think this is his replacement or anything.

    It is surprising, I know Wesley has been but so has our entire team. Why spend 20 games absolutely bleeding at PG with Sochan and not at least throw Wesley in there a time or two lol

    I love all these posters getting mad at the lack of a stoic response.

    Why can’t he do that in real life?

    I remember when Dejounte couldn't finish and then all of a sudden he could. Granted, Blake's deficiency feels unprecedented, but not getting blocked at the rim every time would be huge for him. Whether he can pass or not is a different issue, but iirc in college he statistically was very good running pnr actions. So we'll see how he develops.

    So many of our players need patience to see if they turn it around. Unfortunately, many posters here want to on young players when they suck then blame everyone when the player later turns it around on another team, and it's not just because Pop is holding all of them back. Some, sure, but not all.

    That's my pseudo nuanced thought on the State of Blake Wesley.

    main issue dejounte had early in his career iirc was the loose dribble, but he looked really different going into year 3 before he tore is ACL, and that carried through upon his return. then the middy jumper became more of an automatic for him that thats when he became a really good player

    That was a strong finish and dunk. This is a great direction for him. I'd say he's learning something. He had a lot of Lonnie Walker type finishes in the big club. That's why he's in Austin. Hopefully, he keeps developing and next year can contribute.
