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

Wemby added as a 50/50 for tonight? DPOY hanging in the balance
 
I think Gordon will (stupidly again) play.. People need to understand that the Spurs have now a target on their backs;. they are hunted and everyone is hell bent on aborting this ascension and crashing the party with particular envious gusto lamenting what they describe excessive "Wemby glaze". We are circled on every team's calendar. And this is why Jaylen Brown is crashing out twice over officiating against us and Bam Adebayo is crying about DPOYs

And that's the best thing that can happen to us.
We don't want our guys to get comfortable or start taking it easy, they need the best possible preparation for the playoffs.

 
A loss tonight wouldnt be the worst thing in the world if we wanted to avoid Denver in the first round tbh :st-stirthepot:
Yesterday I noticed that 2 of our last 5 regular season games are against Denver, and we'll probably be locked into #2 seed at that point (we're darn near locked in today). Will be interesting to see what ethical tanking possibilities exist when the time rolls around, like hypothetically gifting Denver two late wins boosts the Nuggets to 6th seed while dropping the Lakers into the 7th (please oh please). It would be great if Wemby had his 65th game in the bank before the April 12th date with Denver.

Thanks for the post. Makes things a bit more clear. Don't think many saw us doing so well. Go Spurs!
 
Interested to see how the rotation looks if the whole team including HB is active tonight tbh.

with wemby questionable i imagine we'll get more small-ball minutes with CB/HB at center with the strategy of swarming Jokic
