    Analysis 2025-2026 Rookie Rankings

    Man, Cooper Flagg looking more like an elite role player than a future star/superstar in the league. He is still too young to proclaim a flop, but the "generational talent" tag was silly then and even more foolish now..Nothing has popped off out his game so far in his 7-game NBA career (Harper...

    Player Harper injury update

    Same. I was bracing for after ALL-Star break return timeline. Non-contact injuries are always bad news, so this falls under best case scenario in that category..

    Could 've been way worse.. Really happy Dylan won't miss signficant time.. 2-3 weeks 8-10 games by the looks of it..

    Player De'Aaron Fox Expected To Miss The Start Of The Regular Season

    Just like that this guy has not played in a competitive game of basketball for 8 months..That's an ACL-type of injury layoff..He better come back and show us he is worth that max extension. Games like last night is when you desperately need a 30-piece from Fox to take the load off Wemby and make...

    Game Thread Spurs (5-0) @ Suns (2-4) (Sun 11/02/25) [7:00PM CDT]

    I'm fine with this, tbh. Outside the Mavs game, Spurs have won in unconvincing fashion against mediocre teams..Nets & Pelicans getting rolled by everyone and we struggled to put them away...Huge test in next couple games though. (LAL & Rox)

    Game against the Lakers will tell us a lot about this team, especially from a mental standpoint. Wemby, under the spotlight on ESPN, coming off one of his worst NBA career performances.

    Dude is really going to miss a couple of weeks because of a sprained ankle which nobody was able to see when and how it happened..smh

    Single digit scoring in this current era of offense-first basketball is simply unacceptable for superstar tiered players..There is no excuse for it even you are little dinged-up..It is more of a reflection of a mental no-show than anything else. Frankly speaking, it felt like Wemby did his...

    Analysis Any Mitchsuckers going to do damage control for these gutless worms?

    Not sure if it is the coaching staff call, but i wonder if they got cute with these injuries return delays..If those guys are scrimmaging, why were they not inserted for spot minutes in a game like tonight ? Either that or Fox was simply bullshitting about his readiness to go if it was up to him...

    Exactly.. see my post in the Castle thread,.

    Player The blessed howl's moving castle of Stephon Javonte

    My most controversial take going back to Spurstalk days: Castle has more dog in him than Wembanyama..He doesn't get easily rattled..Steph is just less emotive and trash-talky than Wemby and more of a silent killer in the mold of TD and Kawhi.. And i really hate that for Wemby.

    Spurs Talk Refugees - Check In

    Gotta thank whoever put the time, effort, and money to set up this new forum with all the nice bells & whistles. It was pretty obvious Spurstalk was no longer a serious operation when its owners/administrators observed a total radio silence throughout the near month in which ST servers went...

    Game Thread Spurs (5-0) @ Suns (2-4) (Sun 11/02/25) [7:00PM CDT]

    Just when we thought he ascended that rarefied tier of night-in, night-out excellence of the Jokic, prime Timmy, Lebron of the world. Really disappointing seeing him getting shut out violently (or rather take himself out of the game like that) against a mediocre opposition

    Player The restricted-age video store section of Dylan Harper

    Wish Harper the best and hoping he doesn't miss too much time, but the early signs are of him being injury-prone unfortunately..There is always going to be something: a knee, a groin, a finger, a calf.. Not encouraging at all

    Player The unfortunately low-ceilinged Shaolin monastery of Victor Wembanyama

    Said it in the game thread; as long as Wemby still has these complete "ima take the night off" games you can't put him in Top 4-5 just yet..Even as a Wembanyama fan, the first week glazing from media & internet was a little too premature.. As we just saw sadly, he still capable of vomiting...
