Game Thread Spurs (48-17) vs Nuggets (40-26) (Thu 3/12/2026) [8:00PM CDT]

In these 50-50 game decision situations (ie pain tolerance threshold), it is always left to the players to decide whether they could give it a go or not, Wemby clearly felt he couldn't..
Normally i'd argue that with Wemby they have shown they will almost always choose caution when it comes to his bumps and bruises. The fact he went through some amount of warming up and apparently ended it early supports what you said, though.

That being said, in terms of seeding we should probably come to terms with being the 2 seed, which is still amazing. I would be surprised if OKC loses >2 more games this season at this rate and looking at their schedule. Luckily with how seeds 3-7 are so tightly compacted record wise it will be an absolute crap shoot as to who ends up where. 1st seed could easily get a Denver/Minny winner in round 2 just as easily as the 2nd seed could.

Getting Wemby to mid April healthy is the priority now.
 
He'll make the number.


They'll put him out there Willis Reed-style if neccesary.
It'd be especially dramatic with him because every one and their mothers KNOW he's a lock for DPOY ONLY IF HE MAKES THAT NUMBER.
He'd play that 65th game fighting for every minute, every second till he finally gets the 20th minute and @wEmBoY would cry in the rain like Ryan Gosling in The Notebook.
 
We’ll be able to cook Jokic on defense, just like last time. Question will be how we contain he and Murray on the other end.

Guard Party tonight, I predict 20+ from all 3 of them.
 
I'm gonna be livid like hell when he misses on his rightful DPOY by 1 fuckin' game. Watch it happen because we are the Spurs: we have good things happening but we need to suffer all kinds of heartbreaks along the way

Builds character tbh
 
I’d rather he meet the game count before he sits. There can always be a “realer” injury that he cant play through and actually fuck his game count.


Man I just hope the kid gets his awards this season. It’s been way overdue.
 
Pre-game animation on the Jumbotron of a basketball turning into a bunch of bricks upon contact with another solid surface… who comes up with this shit? Lol
