A minutes restriction for a concussion would be the most Spurs thing ever tbh.

If Pop were still coaching, he'd have Vic doing algebra problems while not in the game

min restriction

What for? I thought it was pretty much said min restrictions won't make any difference?

J-Mac cleared too for anybody that cares

OK, deep breath. Hopefully he gets through this just fine. We still need a big game from Steph, Harper to play well, and De’Aaron Fox this could be your day. Let’s get it.

Jordan McLaughlin is clear too? Blazers are fucked, tbh.

still gonna be nervous for him this game and other games to follow anytime he falls for someone takes swipe at him

 

[Mugen]

Jmac's been our 3rd best stringer for a while now. It ain't nothing that he's back tbh.

Play defense, rebound, and mostly take jump shots today. I hope that’s what he does.

Hopefully Mitch and his staff preached to him the importance of protecting himself. We don't care if you turn the ball over to ensure you fall as safely as possible. We're not going anywhere if you're not healthy and available big dawg.

A minutes restriction in the playoffs is a double edged sword. If you lose a game(s?) because of it then you play more games than if you had just won in the first place. Obviously he shouldn’t play 44 minutes or anything, but between playing 20 and losing vs playing 30 and winning the choice is obvious. Just getting the W results in far less minutes overall to be played for the whole team and Wemby individually.

Protect ya neck... and head.

[SpurPadre]

Hopefully, they can jump to a big lead early and have a sizable lead by the end of the third to rest the Big Fella for the 4th.

Is this thing on ABC or just ESPN?

Are people actually seeing something about minutes restriction or are we just saying shit? That would make no sense.

4th quarter, 6 min left. Close game. You think they're taking Wemby out just because he's at 30 min or whatever "restriction"?

Was watching the 2nd half of the last game on replay. From the 5 min left mark of the 3rd quarter to the end of the game the Blazers only scored 26 pts. From the 2.5 min mark left of the 3rd quarter on their whole team only outscored Harper by himself by 9. The team really defended well and rebounded.

Honestly, I wouldve thought Wemby would swing it more than 3 points. Maybe it was already slightly inflated in Spurs favor (due to chance Wemby played being baked in)?
