Game Thread Spurs vs Pacers (Fri 10/17/25) [7:00PM CDT]

Champagne 16-26 from 3 in pre-season!!!

 

[Fireball]

things look a lot better when wemby isnt doing his excessive ballhandling shtick

each inch rumors are adding to his height increases his turnover ratio

 

[spursparker9]

devin's been nice on defense and his decision making has been fine on offense. guys just not hitting shots at the rate we need from that spot

Vassell is not a shooter. He is a tough shot maker but not consistent. If consistent, he would be a borderline all-star already.

 

[SupremeGuy]

Champ looking like 2015 Klay out there.

He also had a great block earlier.

You mean '99 Sean Elliott or shit Bruce Bowen!

There is no problem with the ball handling. Is the lazy passing and logo/stepback fadeaway 3’s( he doesnt do it anymore which is good)..

 

[poopbox]

Siakam fouled castle like 3 times and then complained to the ref

 

[SupremeGuy]

Wemby really fuckking sucks at those passes...

 

[Neuromancer]

Oof...that was a bad sequence

 

[SupremeGuy]

[Lefty20]

Champ aint even hitting the rim on these.

 

[SPURt]

Castle

 

[Neuromancer]

Champ is fucking supernova

 

[ginobilized]

Castle with a statement dunk
Champ scorching

 

[LeBowen]

Where's that guy who kept suggesting we should trade Castle?

 

[spursparker9]

Wow Castle....That Dunk resemble Shaedon Sharpe's insane explosiveness

 

[spurraider21]

great find by castle to hit julian in the corner again

 

[ffadicted]

Our boy Castle lookin FRESH tonight lfg

 

[Neuromancer]

Also that Castle dunk was absolutely disgusting

 

[Arguendo]

Yeah I'd rather keep Champ in the starting llineup than Devin...

I hope they will use the pre-Fox games to make that determination, whoever plays/fits better gets the nod.
I like Champ, give us better size and maybe D, definitely will know his role and play within it.
Devin gives us much more scoring punch, better athleticism, but that scoring is prolly better served with the second unit/giving Harper a weapon.
Barnes may also be playing for his role, if he doesn't hit 3s he's fairly useless. I think Champ can play the 4 as well as Barnes, boards about as much, pretty much same size.
