Manu should have been charged with a technical foul in the first quarter for pulling up on the basket. Everyone else is, but no he got to go to the free throw line. Also there was a whole lot of flopping by the Spurs going on. The Spurs should owe the league a lot of money for the flops. Wemby should have been charged a flagrant file for trying to go after Gordon. Of course that was like a toothpick hitting a brick. But the Spurs really owe the referees a big thank you because they won the game for them.

Go Spurs. The whole team from top to bottom played as perfectly as they could and did their job. This what happens when you have a competent team around Wemby.
I love Wenby. He's like every boy with passion on basketball. Pure love.
Wemby might just sweep up a pile of awards this season! He's proving to be a rookie sensation, on the trajectory to become a superstar or even a legend. It's rare to witness someone of his caliber so early in their career. In fact, the last time we saw this level of promise was with players like Durant, LeBron, Wade, and Curry. Looks like the pundits were spot on about his potential.

Size, energy, movements, B-IQ, passing, hustle, awesome pro, person and teamate = Mamu! The game becomes more SPUR-ish with Wemby and Manu together.. just becomes fluid!-nice.. Bring him back!
The Spurs have a really good clutch roster. Tre Jones was super clutch at Duke, and Devonte Graham is too. Can't forget about Wemby. I see a championship in store for the Spurs!
I trust in Spurs in making the right moves to make the team competitive next year. Probably a star point guard, and a solid big, but the Spurs have a good young core to build around.
This was one of the most exciting nights in the NBA regular season. This game, kings-suns, jazz-LaC, wolves-hawks, LaL-Grizz, knicks-Net, bulls-wizards all with crazy close endings. Can't wait for the playoffs
My League Pass subscription is so worth it now... when the SPURS play like this !!! YEEESSSSSS !!! The future will be amazing for this team and their fans !!! 🏀
I love my Spurs and I can't wait for next year so Go Spurs Go! We need the right players in the draft!
pop mind game on the inbound
Salute to the ROTY... But, we can't only talk about Wemby, here. Shout out to Graham for leading the charge, setting teammates up and creating great looks for everyone. Transition 3s, great energy, recognized doubles and switches, and made the right plays ( key buckets) overall. Seems like a good fit for damn near everyone involved. 35 wins next season?
That timeout by pop at the end of the game was lowkey genius
Victor WetBannas for ROTY
NBA never seen fans this loud since Warriors Oakland or even Dynasty Spurs days.
Wemby was phenomenal. He sparked the run and kept the team within striking distance. But Graham made the finishing touches. He was as clutch as any big game player can be. Mamu was also a key piece of the win, as well as Tre and Julian. You can actually see the chemistry now apparent
I really hope he stays healthy. History says people with his body type cannot stay healthy but hopefully he is the exception. The league would be so much better with him around.
if all takes to for wemby to win vs healthy Denver squad is a motivated graham and mamu spurs better start building around wemby next season
