  1. It’s 4AM here. IF I’M GONNA STAY AWAKE TO WATCH THAT SHIT AT LEAST I’M GONNA HAVE FUN WITH PREMIERE PRO.

    ​

    Good night.

  2. Honey wake up, another useless “Wemby’s teammates don’t pass him the ball” post is on the sub

  4. Almost all of those passes in the first half of the video are difficult ones that probably lead to a turnover. And you really want Tre to make a tough pass at the end instead of kick out to a wide open Keldon?

  6. I mean they packed the paint. We have poor passers and poor shooters. It was tough for us to deal with. Credit the Heat for implementing something that worked.

  7. Most of these are fine. Passing over Bam, or to Wemby when he’s covered by Bam, isn’t really that much better than to the arc with a capable shooter on the other end. The Heat forced the exact kind of actions they could live with.

  8. I think this highlights the types of passes that could be there if the Spurs had an elite passer, vs passes the actual Spurs should necessarily be making. A lot of them are available if you have the skill but aren’t easy.

  10. I think I have the answer here. Tell every single person on this roster that the first read on every single action is “Give the ball to the guy who can dunk without jumping when he gets close to the hoop.”

    Every single time you miss that read, you get to enjoy the cushioned chairs on the sideline and get replaced by somebody else. Once everybody has missed that read once, the cycle restarts.

    At some point, Pop needs to stop allowing these guys to do this over and over and over and over for 40-odd games.

  11. This team is bad. But not sure what a new.bunch of Rookies will do next season.

    Spurs never make trades and just don’t make flashy moves in the off season.

  12. I wouldn’t be surprised if Pop & Co have told the rest of the team to avoid Victor in obvious scoring situations to piss him off and get some nasty out of him, see where his breaking point is.

    Some of the opportunities were a lot more clear cut easy passes than what these clips show throughout the season and this game with him flashing to the rim a lot.

  14. the clip at :42 seconds is annoying keldon is not him lol

    the pass at :50 seconds is not that easy because hes not open if u take a look a bam footwork

    lastly tre jones and Keldon should not be shooting 4 and 5 shots repectful in the 4th quarter

    some of those other passes are diffcult even if the man is 7 ft 4

  15. This might sound crazy (but I wouldn’t put it past Pop 😂)! What if Pop secretly told everyone NOT to pass it to Wemby, because Pop thinks he’s still too nice, and wants to see him get to where he steps up, and starts Demanding the ball?! Could be a great first step, to building him into a strong leader! 🤷🏼‍♂️

    (I’ll see myself to the white padded room now!😅)

    In My Defense: little else makes sense as to why anyone would leave him THAT Wide Open!?!
