I think we’re just in the “win small” phase of our transition into contender status. No matter who we play against, the young guys just play to the level of competition, which is usually worse than their usual standard.

Manchester united fans can tell you the blessing from a legendary coach means fuck all.

Okay but Pop isn’t just a legendary coach. Phil Jackson is a legendary coach but he doesn’t have the history of being a true teacher like Pop. Pop has gotten perhaps more people hired into promotions and has the largest coaching tree of anyone in NBA history. He is the ideal kind of coach to give his blessing to the next in line because he invests so much in the people under him.

kuhzada | Spurs

2 | 9 hours ago

Yeah, the context is so important. Not to mention it’s clear that the Spurs mean everything to him, so he would never leave its stewardship to someone he didn’t feel deserves it.

That never meant that Mitch would be able to fill his shoes, but he’s done a commendable job in his first full year. I’m honestly stunned about how much he’s accomplished already with such a young core.

cookomputer | Spurs

13 | a day ago

He is doing more than good enough for a rookie coach, he takes time outs at the right time to chew the team out if they play brain-dead, my issue with him is not challenging the most obvious stuff while challenging the worst ones lmao

I also think there’s value in having a young coach develop their skill as a young team develop theirs, giving them a chance to grow together as a unit. Similar to Mark Daigneault. But maybe that’s just me romanticising a narrative.

dreamweaver7x | Spurs

People are in a hurry and unrealistic.

This is year one of Wemby, Castle, Harper and Mitch together for a full season, and can throw Fox into that equation too, no thanks to the blood clot that stole most of Wemby’s sophomore season. It’s extremely unlikely that they’ll even make the Finals, much less win the title this season. They have a lot to learn about each other as teammates, and Mitch still has a lot to learn about his team and star players.

Even the 2011-12 OKC Thunder had KD on his 4th season, Russ on his 3rd, and both Harden and Ibaka in their 2nd year. Scotty Brooks had been the coach since 08-09.

My kingdom for some shooters… Castle and Harper are awful, Fox is average at best, Vassell is terribly inconsistent, Keldon has good percentages but on low volume, and Barnes has been cold for a month and a half (he was good this time, let’s hope it’s not just a fluke). Champagnie is our only consistently reliable shooter, together with Wemby, but it’s not like he’s prime Ray Allen either.

The Spurs are now 4.5 games behind OKC. Shai missing atleast 4 games, maybe more, JDub out indefinitely, Chet out as well, they could be in real danger of losing the 1 seed now.

Got my best seats ever to an NBA game. Like 6 rows back. Truly amazing. Wemby is just crazy to see in person. It’s just not normal how much he towers over absurdly large humans.

Dev just came back ! Before the injury he was one of the more reliable 3 point shooters on a team that desperately needs it. I’m glad the Spurs are getting healthy (knock on wood) at this point in the season and now have time to shake off the rust (in Dev’s case) and build some more chemistry.

The little absences from the guys here and there are great too. Carter Bryant getting into the rotation while Kornet is out is giving him some valuable game reps - hope it gives him the confidence for spot impact minutes if Spurs need a different look in the playoffs.

I don’t think any first overall goes to a good situation to start competing immediately.

Flagg is prolly in better situations than most cuz he has help on the way in lively, Kyrie and another pick next year.

But yeah sucks to see him average like 36 over 4 games and lose all 4

Yeah. No reason to play like Luka. Dial it back to 18-20 shots a night but on a much better efficiency. That allows his teammates to step up. Wemby went through that same phase his rookie year.

Something clicked for Cooper after that Laker game. He’s been looking like a top-five player since.

“Just yet” - you make it sound like wemby’s about to be 36 years old 🤣🤣.. Wemby’s 22 and is improving too my guy.

Coop has got a lot to catch up on. In fact, we’re not even sure he could reach Wemby’s level. Coop will improve, but so is Wemby. And yall forgot the insane ceiling of wemby and how scary he would be in his prime.

Cooper Flagg is a solid top 20 right now, ngl.

It ultimately depends on Wemby. If he reaches his full potential, I doubt Cooper has the athletic gifts to match him. Literally no one in NBA history does. We can already see that defensively, where rookie Wemby was probably a more impactful defender than peak Cooper will be.

Wemby’s theoretical ceiling approaches the human limit

Fox missed every single middie, we iced wemby after his hot start failing to get him the ball. Time for Mitch Johnson to go bald.

Did you miss the Mavs doubling and sometimes triple teaming when he got the ball on the block? Wemby passed the ball well out of them.

Nah the Spurs just absolutely locked in in the clutch. Once we’re in the bonus it’s just time to feed Wemby and let him draw fouls. Fox and Castle also nailed some clutch buckets.

Is Caleb Martin a dirty player? Haven’t seen him much but he was getting away with A LOT of two hand pushes on Wemby at the end, then got caught and on that Castle alley oop he reckless bumped him in air when he had no chance of getting the ball, Castle could’ve been seriously hurt for a play no one could’ve done from Martin’s angle.

Was it just some bad decisions or is he like that? Honest question, Castle could’ve easily torn something on his landing

Other than that good game, this rookie class is insane Flagg v Harper gonna feed families and VJ/Kon great too.
