Game Thread Spurs (6-2) vs Pelicans (2-6) (Sat 11/08/25) [7:00PM CDT]

[PanameSpur]

It's such a relief to have a closer...

Not sure if we messed up as much as the refs wanted to keep it close tbh, weird game he could (should?) have won by 30pts

 

[OK Computer]

Very interesting post game interview by Fox… talks like he’s not a max player on this team and like his time here isn’t long…

Said something like, “i’m here to support the team and support Vic become the greatest ever”.

Hope someone can get a clip.

TMIII may have enshrined himself in the Bonzi Wells/Zach Randolph/Jonas Valanciunas/Jordan Poole Hall of Spurs Killers

You forgot Dragon

 

[Devi8or]

TM3 was eating Castles lunch today, good that we closed it out though

 

[The Ballsbreakers]

Exactly why we need Fox. With Wemby, there's either something lingering physically, or he's just in his own head. Just don't like his body language right now. He still had 18 and 18, in spite.

One thing though is that he's certainly improved his conditioning. Played every game so far and does not seem to be in that much minutes restriction either.

And yeah I think he's just in his own head.

Sup with the “hype squad” being full of a bunch of fat@sses?

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Did you not just edit this? I was laughing earlier when you started with "I'm ugly..." bahaha

Fucking AutoCorrect

 

[Robz4000]

Moral loss > moral win imo

 

[PanameSpur]

Is there a world where Queen is better than whoever is top5 next season?

Kid can ball

Yeah, hopefully it's just mental. We are so, so much better when he's beasting.

At least they're getting their exercise that way.

 

[Valparaiso]

All of these early season injuries could work in our favor... To have a 7-2 record after Fox's first game, with Kornet still out, is really more than most of us could've hoped for.

 

[Wemby_Island]

Wemby should be in the paint on damn near every play. Just score.

Well team might have big picture.

He was more in paint last night.

We also has to remember that he is 21 and coming of DVT.

Team might be thinking to preserve his body early season. He is not warrented any hate, he is Monster on D.

 

[Dex]

Definitely played down to the competition, but a win is a win. Can't complain about being 7-2 while not playing great and missing key pieces

bullshit take

 

[spursistan]

Damn I don't want Victor passing the ball out of the paint this late in the game

Feels like his confidence has been shaken on the offensive end..His feel with his shot and decionion-making has gone out of kilter, since the ¨PHX game

 

[gilmor2002]

The give n go between queen and troy m is the way to breakdown Wemby defense

 

[Splits]

At times ugly, but overall solid win. Great to have Fox back.

7-2..

On pace to win 63 games

 

[ShoppingCartFestival]

bullshit take

Why?

 

[The Ballsbreakers]

A win is a win and it's awesome to see Fox back and play like he didn't even miss a day of camp.
Have a good day, you filthy bums!

 

[inagra]

Felt a little woozy with Fox’s minutes for his first game. A lot for game 1.

 

[Wemby_Island]

It will come back.

He is easing into it. Not worried. Good these things are happening early season.

 

[scott]

Love this team.

 

[wemvp]

Professional win.

2nd of a b2b. Team coming in had won 2 straight and their best player on the court was red hot tonight.

Didn't matter, Spurs got out to a lead and pretty much went wire to wire. Answered every run. The last min had Fox take over and finish it out.

These are wins in this situation and fashion this franchise hasn't been getting in 7 years.

7-2 and Wemby, Fox, Castle, and Harper haven't played a single game together while Kornet only played the first 2.

Everyone would have taken that when the season started.

So we don't need Fox, and everything is hunky dory with Wemby these last 3 games after he was dropping 35 a game the first 5? He's barely/not even scoring 20 now.
