[tearsofmorningdew]

Two more 20 min stints for Wemby and just rest for the playoffs tbh

Make Fox play 45 min a night to shake off whatever is making him play like he’s been playing

 

[LeBowen]

We have a week off before the playoffs start, no need to rest anyone.
Our star players are among the lowest in mpg in the entire league.
We need them to be ready to play 38mpg in the playoffs.

yep. getting in these extra "playoff atmosphere" games before the playoffs are like free XP boosts. obviously if someone gets injured that sucks, but imo this team needs to get battle hardened to have a shot anyway

It's a must win game for the Sixers and they've been solid as of late, we need to keep our edge and show that there's no room for complacency.
Will be a good test for Wemby if Embiid is on a reasonable level. He needs all the reps he can get.

Unrelated, but I'd like us to play the Blazers in the first round, have Clingan go at Wemby, would be a good warm up for Jokic.

 

[Area 51.247]

If Wemby is playing tomorrow I’m gonna run the Bill Simmons parlay: Spurs W, Wemby 3+ pts, Wemby 15+ reb

Wonder if I should add anything else… maybe Castle assists

Harper something? Rookie top 5 matchup with V.J. Edgecomb. He takes those to heart, it seems.

Lots of bs narratives out there regarding the over-hyped MVP race....

but HERE is the one I want to see; SGA wins 2026 MVP due to misinformed kunts

1st round - spurs vs warriors - wemby eliminates former mvp curry
2nd round - spurs vs nuggets - wemby eliminates former mvp jokic
3rd round - spurs vs okc - wemby eliminates SGA

Finals- I dont see Embiid miraculously reaching the finals ...

so take your pick!

Finals - Spurs eliminate former 2023 All-Star Game MVP Jayson Tatum...

Can’t play warriors in the first round. 9 or 10 can only play into the 8 spot, and that’s OKC’s first round opponent.

Lets change that to:

Spurs vs clippers - and wemby eliminates a one time finals MVP in kawhitter!

LAL came close with Mavs. Maybe they beat the Jazz, but Nuggets have a better chance to win two.

 

[Coyote2!]

Hell yeah, first matchup between Embiid and Wemby in over two years.

 

[spurs10]

Go Spurs!

Go Blazers!

Can't see DEN losing to any of these bottom-tier teams tbh. They know what's at stake. They'd much rather take their chances with a young, unproven Spurs team in the 2nd Round imo than OKC, who are nightmare matchup for them. OKC is going to punt that game against DEN next week too to ensure DEN stays in the 3rd seed.

Kawhi is a 2 time finals mvp
