News Spurs Media Day: 9.29.25

Listening through the interviews now. Like what Fox had to say about Sean Sweeny. Says he's had some good games against his defenses in the past, but he's definitely a guy who makes it tough on opposing players.

Also liked that one of the media chodes came out with "it seems like you've played in more than one playoff series..." and Fox cut him off and said "no it doesn't". It's apparent that Fox is very aware that he hasn't had the opportunity to be a perennial playoff performer, and he wants to change that.
 
I've reached the French portion of Wemby's Q&A. I have a feeling these were the most challenging questions and most insightful questions of the entire day, but they're in fucking French. Maybe one of our Frenchie's can give us a recap.

I got you...

1st question about having trained with KG and Hakeem, why them ? Victor said that he discussed with his entourage about who could help him the most and were avaible. He completemented saying it was very positive sometimes in a short period of time, he said it was very interesting (in French interesting has no negative conotation)
2nd was if he will play since day 1 even scrimage and hoped for a gradual PT. Victor said he is ready, he has improved a lot and he is ready day 1
3rd on his injury. Nothing new here, the injury helped him reflect on life etc... at the end he is convinced that despite the step back it will be beneficial for him personally and for his careeer
4th if he has butterflies in the stomach for the season. Victor said he is becoming VERY eager to start, he cannot wait, he is watching his highlights to basically kill the time and getting hyped
5th what did he improve during the offseason. (Probably the most interesting part). Victor said his body, he feels very good like never before, he has the tank full and is eager to use his new tool (body), He feels that for the first time in a long time, he is 100% and commented that during the season he felt sometimes tired because season is long but he will start with a new motor.
6th questions about moves and stuff he worked during offseason. Victor said yes of course I worked on moves but he knows he can play basketball, what he worked the most was strategy and the tactical aspect, he commented in particular about his shot selection. Then he came back about his body and his progress, he feels this is the aspect he progressed the most.


Sorry it is not word for word but thats the spirit of the questions and answers.
 
Wemby's confidence about the upcoming season feels scary (in a good way).
 
Over-excitement, overconfidence, rare pretentiousness, inability to sit still. I think they treated Victor's thrombosis with cocaine. Scary. (In a bad way.)
 
This is the season Victor becomes an MVP level player. We always heard before he was drafted how scouts thought he could be the best player in the league on both sides of the ball by year 5. This is the season he truly begins that climb
 
Oh man if wemby improved his shot selection then he would be top 3 in the league.

Would love to have him develop the patience and creation like a Duncan where it’s more about pacing than speed.

He would be unstoppable.

You are a scholar and a gentlemen, thank you! (And confirmed, these are great questions and answers.
 
Wemby said he needs playing time and reps this preseason. What we putting the over/under on his total preseason minutes? 30?
 
there are problems with this team and franchise at the moment. But victor is just pure awesome.
 
I love the emphasis on D. yes please.
with wemby, it's possible to be scary good on Defense.
we need players committed to it.
but it doesn't stop with the miss, REBOUND is essential!

An alternative is for him to just become a 42% three point shooter. It sounds crazy but Wemby is one player I can't rule anything out for.
 
Harper is suppose to be ready by opening night, right?

If so, then he should be starting with Fox slated to miss the first week or so.
 
so wemby went from 7'3 235 last year to 7'4 240 this year

castle from 6'5 210 to 6'6 220

champagnie from 6'8 210 to 6'7 215

ingram still 6'5 235

vassell still 6'5 205

keldone from 6'5 215 to 6'6 215

sochan from 6'8 230 to 6'8 225
