November 28, 20241 yr This is done. We don't have the legs or the brains tonight. Total dogshit from KJ and Wemby has been bad.
November 28, 20241 yr The insane defensive combination of Tre Jones, Keldon, and Vassell allowing the Lakers to pull away.
November 28, 20241 yr 2 minutes ago, Pam Cummings said: Mamu with 0 minutes.....why Because they want to torture us with more Keldon Johnson minutes. I can’t wait for Jeremy to come back to spare us from watching this bum.
November 28, 20241 yr Author I guess you can't play Utah every night but beyond that, they didn't play with much juice. A little disappointing considering that Lakers played last night, too.

December 2, 20241 yr Author This is turning into a good one. Spurs are 20/40 from three. Wemby one assist away from a triple double.
December 2, 20241 yr Author Wemby pretty ridiculous right now. His learning how to force the switch when setting the pick is opening up so sorts of things.
December 2, 20241 yr Clutch three by CP3 there! Oh, and another triple double from Wemby tonight. Great game by Vassell. Kind of a tough game for Castle tonight, and really bad game from Bassey when he got minutes earlier in the game. Sucks because I really like that dude, but he just didn't have it tonight.
December 2, 20241 yr Lol everyone in the building knew KJ was missing one of those. Cannot believe we inbounded the ball to him. Fortunately they fucked up the rebound.
December 2, 20241 yr On to Tuesday, and a date with Destiny…who may or may not be a stripper in Vegas.
December 2, 20241 yr 10 minutes ago, Fastbreak said: only 3 blocks? Get it together Wemby... And 5 fouls and 5 turnovers. Really poor night from him honestly. Branham with another DNP after 4 garbage mins against the Lakers. That nightmare might be over.
December 2, 20241 yr Author Spurs would have lost that game last year. They’re 5-3 in crunch time games this year. They were 13-28 last year. Sochan supposed to be back Tuesday against Phoenix. If they beat the suns, they win their cup group. I’m actually a little into it. This will be the first game in a long ass time that they’ve played for anything but ping pong balls.
December 2, 20241 yr Author On 11/8/2024 at 9:36 AM, Mitch Cumsteen said: All this. I have zero problem with him taking threes. He needs to take them. It's the shot selection that is so disgusting. He needs to get his looks in the rhythm of the game. Maybe don't launch 30 footers with hand in your face with 20 seconds on the clock after zero passes? If he makes a couple in the flow of the offense and then wants to take a heat check, sure. But otherwise work for a better shot. Overall, though, he's been very rough. I wonder about his conditioning. I get that he needed rest after the Olympics, but I didn't think it would be this bad. He gets winded really quickly and I think it also contributes to his shot selection. It's a lot easier to jack up a three from the logo and only have to run halfway back down the court than go fight for position against a turd like Dillon Brooks on the block. But fuck, how out of shape could a 20 year old with zero body fat get in a few weeks? He looked like a monster in the Olympics. Since I posted this, Wemby is hitting 43% from three on crazy volume. These numbers are not normal on any level.

Dude is an elite shooter. His form is awesome. You don't see a guy shoot like that and tell him to cut it down. If he's open for 3, fire away baby. Edited December 2, 20241 yr by Pam Cummings
December 2, 20241 yr Take the rest of December to get the rotations and chemistry settled, then the (even more) fun really begins. Couldn't wait to see Vassell back, and he's showing he's still silky smooth, and now can't wait to see the full team healthy and get Sochan back. GSG.
December 3, 20241 yr https://theringer.com/2024/12/03/nba/nba-awards-2024-25-mvp-rookie-of-the-year-nikola-jokic Wemby DPOY and Castle ROTY
December 4, 20241 yr Man I just love Jeremy's presence. It's like he calms everyone down on both ends of the floor. Does dirty work. Gets 50/50 balls (and 40/60 balls). Pisses opponents off. We did fine without him record-wise but it felt like we were a lot streakier and less purposeful. I think this is going to be a tough win, though. PHO has been really damn good when Durant and Beal play.
December 4, 20241 yr Sochan looks good. Wemby is still scoreless halfway through the 2nd quarter, he needs to get it going.
December 4, 20241 yr I kind of worry that 82 games is a bit much for Wemby's frame. Seems like he has some consistency issues and doesn't really bring it night in and night out. Really it's the only thing keeping him from being a top 5 player. Maybe (hopefully) it's just a mental thing. He has done this twice against LA and now against PHO in another marquee matchup.

December 4, 20241 yr Really bad half from Wemby. Hopefully he wakes up for the second half, we need him.
December 4, 20241 yr Author I’m not sure how they’re only down 13 at half. 2-20 from three. Wemby scoreless. 9 turnovers. But holy shit the suns have Alice Cooper playing halftime.
December 4, 20241 yr Our announcers are aware that KD appears to be done for the night, correct? Kind of a big note to open this half. Although maybe Johnson really did give a killer locker room speech. We should win this with no Durant.
December 4, 20241 yr Author I think the Spurs figured out that Phoenix has zero rim protection. Sometimes it’s okay to shoot layups. Durant being out isn’t hurting either. Booker in foul trouble. They could get this one tonight.

Phoenix wasn't going to stay healthy all season.
December 4, 20241 yr I'm not sure anyone has played more minutes for the Spurs than KJ with less BBIQ. Like in the history of the franchise. I mean holy shit he almost without fail does something mind-numbingly stupid multiple times per game. Outside of that - nice rotational player. Edited December 4, 20241 yr by ztejas
December 4, 20241 yr Read the fucking room KJ. How on earth do you think that that is a good shot? If we ever make the playoffs I'm not sure how you go into a series trying to win while giving that dude 20-30 minutes.
December 4, 20241 yr Pissing away this opportunity with KD out in the 4th quarter. Got within 4, and now it's a 17 point deficit. They're running out of time.
December 4, 20241 yr Author They missed 24 straight threes until that one from Keldon. I don’t know how they aren’t down 25. Edited December 4, 20241 yr by Mitch Cumsteen
December 4, 20241 yr Worst loss of the season. I wish we could move on from KJ but the FO won't do it and no one would want him anyway. Feel like we should have shipped him a year or two ago. Then again we were giving Malaki Branham minutes up until 4 games ago. Still a lot to like with these guys but tonight was not it. It's going to start and end with Wemby and he was bad again. But I mean fuck me all we had to do was hit 30% from 3 tonight. Glad to get Sochan back. Christ I just realized Nurkic didn't even play either. Edited December 4, 20241 yr by ztejas
