Spurs are still slightly favored.

This is probably assuming Vic doesn’t play. If it jumps to like -5.5 later this afternoon, he’s a Go.

Wemby is a GTD. He’ll probably play tonight.

Relax Uncle Rico..."would've taken state had coach put me in 4th Qtr".... Jk bruh

Nowhere did I say I was a star player. All I was giving is my perspective as I tended to play through injuries all the time. Didn't give a shit about the consequences at the time (I'd maybe think about it a bit more these days, but ultimately, I think I'd still do the same now even though I know it's not good to do so - still got lingering injury to my knee). Personally, if I wasn't dizzy or feeling disoriented, I'd come back the same game if taking the same knock as Victor. I grew up in the Kobe, TD, Manu, D-Wade era, those guys didn't take games off unless they were forced to. I didn't grown up in the Kawhi era (can't think of another example as I didn't want to use his name due to it pissing me and probably other people off).

^ I know it's a joke but is there a rule against wearing protective head gear? If yes, what's the argument against it tbh?

I don’t know I mean, all of that would have to be in the CBA I would assume..

Don't know the answer but I don't see what the difference would be from wearing something like that and the mask they wear when they break their nose for protection.

Anotha one. Wemby should break barriers and become the first player in NBA history to wear a padded helmet tbh.
