That’s a brutal L but the Pels aren’t as bad as their record.

I think Kornet for sure would have helped but his minutes were wonky since Vic was on the restriction. Kornet had already played 33 minutes. I don't know how much he had left in the tank at the end for the French Vanilla combo.

Thanks for the article. He's such a physical outlier anyway, One of one. I don't know how analogous adolescent academy soccer players playing for a club team in Europe are to the type of specific training and attention to injury prevention that Wemby has been going through since he was 14 years old. The strained calf and the ankle sprains I think are par for the course for NBA players in general. I was speaking more specifically to the deep vein thrombosis than growth-related injuries like Osgood-Schlatter´s disease. Since that's what knocked him out of the season last year. I think the reports that he's still growing are bullshit, but who knows? He played 71 games as a rookie and then 46 out of 52 games last year before the DVT. But for sure injuries were always going to be the biggest question about his career.

They always have been and will continue to be extremely cautious with him as they are with all of their players coming off injury. But he's not on any sort of permanent minutes restriction as far as I know. He played 20 minutes against OKC. 25 last night. They are just ramping him up. He was playing ~35 minutes a game before he got hurt. He's 21. You guys are dreaming / being ridiculous. With regard to comparisons to Holmgren, you're the doctor... you tell me the likelihood of the deep vein thrombosis coming back to be something chronic or that is career altering? That seems like a one off, especially in the upper body. Chet, on the other hand, had a lisfranc injury before he ever played an NBA game and fractured his pelvis. He seems a lot more fragile to me and he doesn't look like he's filling out the way Wemby is even though he's two years older. I hope the Spurs remain extremely cautious with Vic not only for his long term health but also to the point where they keep him out enough to not hit 65 games and isn't eligible for the super max. Helps their cap down the road. As long as he's healthy for the playoffs...

Great experience for this team regardless. Future is ridiculously bright.

Completely killed on 50/50 balls. Horrible on the boards. Gave up way too many open threes.

He’s going to hit about five in a row once he sees the first one go down.

Not getting any calls tonight. Honestly, I don’t mind it as long as they let them play on both sides.

The nephew is a bum and a loser. They should have never traded Norman Powell. Harden was playing for a contract last year. They are old as fuck. And as mentioned, they are the Clippers and they do Clipper things. I think Ty Lue is one of the best coaches in the business, but they may be tuning him out at this point.

NBA 2025-2026 Season Thread
If you look back at the playoff games OKC lost last year, it was mostly the ones where Williams laid an egg shooting. Also, the Spurs didn't shoot particularly well, either. Barnes has been their best three point shooter and he went 0-8 from downtown. Harper was 3 / 13 from the field. Wemby only played 20 minutes. Not sure either team really played their A game. Regardless, I think we're looking at the next great rivalry in the league over the next 5-ish years. 12 people outside of San Antonio and Oklahoma will watch it.

OKC is a great team, possibly an all time great team, and they're probably going to win 70 games and the title again. But their record and point differential at this point of the season is a little bit of fool's gold. I said it a couple of weeks ago, but they have played the weakest schedule in the league and they've had some opponents injury luck as well. Granted they've been without Williams almost the entire season but they're so deep and they've been getting teams into garbage time so early, that their second unit keeps pouring it on so the numbers are a little skewed. Credit to them for being damn near 15 deep, but they are running it up on some scrubs. That isn't going to necessarily help them come playoff time. Go back through their schedule and tell me what their best win of the season is? Maybe opening night at home in 2OT against Houston? They smashed a mostly healthy Golden State at home. They beat Minnesota by 8 at home in a cup game. I guess they smacked the Lakers without Lebron pretty good. Maybe the league is a bit overrated this year? I'd really like to see them match up with Denver. I'd like to see them against Houston again. I'd like to see them play anyone from the east with a pulse. Those two games against the Spurs over the next 10 days should be fun, too.

We’re going to lose one of the next two against those assholes by 40. Time to go get that cup. But for now? Fuck you thunder.- 2025 Texas Coaching/Support Staff Thread
I hear ya but we hired Duane Fucking Akina last offseason. We should have been permabanning anyone who brought up his name over the last decade plus.- Jabbar Juluke RB Coach Texas
I’ve had enough of your bullshit already. Why don’t you go fuck yourself?- San Antonio Spurs 2025-26 - Release the Kraken
This is the most meaningful game the spurs have played in something like 7 years against a team on a historic run and the first time the Spurs will have been at full strength this season notwithstanding any minutes limitation on Wemby. That’s admittedly a low bar but the last thing I am is meh on this game. Even if people think this cup thing is stupid(which I don’t btw), this is an important game in the evolution of this incarnation of the franchise anda measuring stick for where it currently stands. I’ve had all the fun I want counting ping pong ballls and rooting for the hawks to lose. Let’s get this car out on the highway and see what it can do.- San Antonio Spurs 2025-26 - Release the Kraken
Three games against OKC in the next couple of weeks. Seems like the first chapter in what should be the best rivalry in the NBA for the next five years.- San Antonio Spurs 2025-26 - Release the Kraken
It's a long season. You never know when he might get a chance to get in there and show something. But they can't play 4 vs 5 on offense when he's out there and with the way Castle, Harper and Fox are able to get into the paint, you must have guys who you can kick out to and reliably knock down an open jumper. That obviously ain't him. Especially last night, when LA's perimeter defense was so bad and getting collapsed over and over. It wasn't a good spot for him. We may see him against OKC if the game is more of a slog, which I expect it to be unless OKC just runs us out of the gym. That's more of a game where you could envision him making an impact taking on SGA or Williams for a few possessions if one of them gets rolling.- San Antonio Spurs 2025-26 - Release the Kraken
Fuck all that. I want to see Wemby make Chet look like a high schooler again.- San Antonio Spurs 2025-26 - Release the Kraken
