Game Thread Playoffs Round 1, Game 4: Spurs @ Blazers (2-1) (Sun 04/26/2026) [2:30 CDT]

[LeBowen]

I guess I'll try my luck since noone else dares.
Wemby should hopefully be back for this one and we take care of business.

Early tip-off, maybe for the better so we keep the momentum going.

 

[Mugen]

Wemby should play. Don’t get cute with it.

 

[spurs2112]

Did he not pass protocol or did Spurs just sit him. I missed it if they gave the reason.

 

[frenchfred]

Let's hope for Wemby's return to go back home with a 3-1 lead, I don't want the Spurs to waste all their energy against the Blazers. Next round will be tough, hoping that the Wolves-Nuggets last longer.

Apparently he pushed to play, but his protocol tests weren't satisfactory.

Oh. Well that kinda sucks a bit. Shows he was still having some sort of symptoms.

 

[Guru of Nothing]

Go Spurs Go!

 

[spursfanlikeyou]

Wemby is playing and we will wrap this up 4-1.

Wolves will beat the Nuggets 4-2.

We will beat the Wolves 4-1.

What a time.

I want the Nuggets- Wolves series to keep going all 7 games!!! If we will attack the paint like Minny has and hit our open 3s, the Spurs will be a tough out!

Was this something reported or something you heard or reading between the lines?

Let’s take it down a notch, wolves have been a matchup nightmare for us and defend 100 times better than the blazers do.

The athletic reported that wemby pushed to play but protocol said otherwise

Nightmare matchup is a bit much tbh

That's not up to the team but the independent guy evaluating him

I don't think they are better defensively. Portland has 3 All-NBA level defenders (Camara, Holiday, Thybulle) and 2 great rim protectors (Clingan, Timelord). They are the perfect preparation for our squad to figure out how to dissect an elite defense.

Our biggest issue when we play the Wolves is that Naz lineups always kill us with a barrage of 3s. I guess that could be different now that we have CB.

I understand. Mostly referring to squashing any debate about him suiting up once he is officially cleared. Them being up 2-1 should not have any bearing on him playing Game 4 if he has been cleared.

 

[QuarryHeights]

I agree though I might want him to come off the bench in his first game back

Easy there we were just down 15 PTS last night..

That said Wemby or no Wemby jamming these boys in a 3-1 hole would make my weekend..

Delete this immediately, we need reverse jynxes only.

So long as you don't start any game threads we'll be fine
