Super poised for a rookie, it doesn’t feel like he realizes its an elimination game. Great ball security, timely drives and passes. Also the best individual game he’s had since the beginning of the series.

Hope he can continue it in game 7. Wemby is Wemby, but Harper has become my favorite player to watch on the Spurs.

I love both the rookies, Harper and CB. Watching the former prove he’s a prodigy and the latter develop in real time (sometimes in literal minutes between fuck up, learning, and improving lmao) is just excellent basketball.

A lot of this series has been ref ball but I’m still loving it thanks to the Spurs.

Neither player gets MVP in that case. If Wemby merely misses the 65 game cutoff, his voters won’t just switch to the next available Spur, they’ll vote for a #1 on some other team.

GabeIsGone | Spurs

2 | 5 hours ago

Not true.

Shaq & Kobe, Jordan & Pippen. Both showed you can get two players from the same team top 5 in MVP votes.

If one of the guys in those two instances went down, the other would certainly have jumped.

So all Harper has to do is get top 5 in the MVP race while Wemby is #1 before he misses games. Should be easy. /s

mathmage | Warriors

You don’t need to go nearly that far back for two players on the same team receiving some top 5 MVP votes. But that is very different from winning as the acknowledged second banana.

PhillipKDickAndBalls

20 | 10 hours ago

So it looks good when they play well and looks bad when they don’t play well? They’re currently taking the defending champs to game 7 of the western conference finals so I’d say it’s working pretty well.

Over_Use_8474 | Lakers

-2 | 10 hours ago

I’m glad you agree they don’t play well when they aren’t hitting 3s. Because that’s all I pointed to.

Let’s not kid ourselves that fox,castle, wemby with harper coming off the bench is the same as castle, harper, and wemby starting.

Castle is a turnover machine without fox, and harper has tore it up if the Spurs can push the pace, but he doesn’t have the jumper to be a real threat is a slower/half court focused game.

PhillipKDickAndBalls

Those three have a plus 20 net rating in lineups where they share the court during this post season. It’s working fine

Over_Use_8474 | Lakers

1 | 10 hours ago

Wemby by himself has a net rating of plus 17. I wouldn’t say it’s because of the 3 together lol.

Fox,vassell and wemby have a plus 26 net rating.

Fox, champegnie, wemby have a plus 22 net rating.

If we are going off of net rating as the end all be all, those 3 man line ups are the ones that spurs should be prioritizing.

MTUKNMMT | Spurs

They might improve though! And even now with the poor shooting there is likely one team that can beat them. I think a Lakers fan out of anyone would appreciate that. A lot of good all your elite shooting did against this team.

Wemby is obviously the Goat but I think dylan is easily our second most important player in these playoffs. Crazy to think that a rookie is affecting the game so much and helping us win. I think he can be the best point guard in the league in a few years, and an all star by next year.
