In preparation for tonight’s Game 1 against the San Antonio Spurs, we sat down with JR Wilco at our sister site Pounding the Rock to discuss what we’re looking out for from our respective opponents. If you want to engage in some light-hearted and kind (stressing this, don’t be obnoxious like Denver Nuggets fans were/are), […]
It’s been seven days since the Spurs vanquished the Portland Trail Blazers in Round 1 of the 2026 NBA Playoffs, and now, it’s finally gameday again. For Round 2, the Spurs face a Minnesota Timberwolves squad whose size gave them plenty of trouble in the regular season (as well as Nikola Jokic in Round 1) […]
Minnesota Timberwolves at San Antonio SpursDate: May 4th, 2026Time: 8:30 PM CDTLocation: Frost Bank CenterTelevision Coverage: Peacock, NBS Sports Network After vanquishing the Denver Nuggets for the second time in three postseasons, the Minnesota Timberwolves now find themselves staring at an entirely different kind of monster. That’s not hyperbole. That’s just what happens when the […]
After a convincing 4-1 defeat of the Portland Trail Blazers in round one, the San Antonio Spurs will face a familiar foe in the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Wolves are red hot, coming off a 3-2 victory over the Denver Nuggets, despite missing several key rotation players. The series is set to be a defensive, physical […]
The Spurs will host the Timberwolves in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals on Monday as heavy favorites despite the uncertainty surrounding Anthony Edwards’ status. Even if the injured superstar guard returns, he’ll likely be limited by two knee injuries, so San Antonio is expected to win this series, as long as they play […]
Anthony Edwards might not miss much of the Timberwolves’ series against the Spurs, per reports. He had been making progress and was initially likely to suit up in Game 3 or Game 4, according to ESPN’s Sham Charania. Apparently, his return could come earlier than that, as he has been listed as questionable for Game […]
Ah, yes, it’s the Spurs-Wolves second-round clash that everyone anticipated! No one around here penciled in a Spurs-Nuggets tilt, and there’s also no evidence of yours truly crashing out following San Antonio’s final regular-season loss to Denver. Now that we have our matchup set, it’s time to dive into some stylistic battles that could take […]
The Eastern Conference has three series that have yet to be decided, with three game sevens between today and tomorrow, but at least the second round of the West is set, and the NBA has released the broadcast schedule for Games 1-4 of the 2nd seed San Antonio vs. the 6th seed Minnesota Timberwolves — […]
Future Hall of Famer Chris Paul retired midseason after twenty-one seasons on the hardwood. Paul, considered one of the greatest point guards of all time, spent his last full season with the San Antonio Spurs. The pairing of CP3 with Victor Wembanyama was regarded as great mentorship. One moment in particular always stuck out to […]
The San Antonio Spurs had relatively little trouble disposing of the Portland Trail Blazers in their recent best-of-seven, first-round NBA Playoffs series. San Antonio won the matchup 4-1. They’re now on their way to face the severely-injured Minnesota Timberwolves in the second round while Portland heads into a summer of retooling and evolution. As it […]
The Portland Trail Blazers and San Antonio Spurs are done with their NBA Playoffs series, but a few question linger from that 10-day span in the Blazer’s Edge Mailbag. Some of them have implications that go beyond just the spring. Let’s address one of them today! Dave, Do you think that the refs changing the […]
The NBA released the next round of game days as the Spurs move on to the next round of Western Conference Semifinals. Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News posted this on x.com. The Spurs will host the first game on Monday, May 4th followed by Game 2 on Wednesday, May 6th. Denver, vanquished on […]
The Timberwolves completed the upset. They defeated Nikola Jokic’s Nuggets in Game 6 110-98, without Anthony Edwards, Donte DiVincenzo, Ayo Dosumnu, and Kyle Anderson, to win the series 4-2. They will face the Spurs on Monday in the first game of the Western Conference Semifinals. The Timberwolves had an up-and-down season but had ample playoff […]
The NBA has informed general managers about the new anti-tanking reforms it hopes to implement as soon as the 2027 season, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania. The wideraging meassures are expected to have enough support from owners to pass. The new plan completely changes how things work with the lottery, in confusing ways. Ricky O’Donnell […]
The Spurs completely dominated the series and would have swept the Trail Blazers had Wembanyama not suffered his concussion: true or false? Marilyn Dubinski: It’s easy to say true since they still got ahead without him later in Game 2 before blowing it, then also made a massive comeback to win Game 3 without him, […]

San Antonio has officially wrapped up the first round, winning its first playoff series since 2017. Naturally, now all eyes look ahead in a “hurry up and wait” situation, as the 3-6 matchup plays out between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Denver Nuggets. Regardless of how things play out, San Antonio sits in a position of […]
I found this interesting. In a nutshell, the 2-1-1 theory is a playoff philosophy that suggests the winning team requires specific contribution distribution: the best player (superstar) wins you 2 games, the second-best player wins you 1 games, and a role player wins 1, taking the team to the 4 necessary wins to take the […]
“Can he fly?” “Who? Wemby?” “The really tall guy.” “Yeah, that’s Wemby.” “Can Wemby fly?” “No. But it sure looks like it, doesn’t it?” “I think he can fly.” Out of the mouth of babes, eh? It’s funny how succinctly and ardently a child can summarize how they feel/what they think about something. For someone […]
We interrupt the regular playoffs programming with some offseason news. The schedule for the California Classic showcase has been released, and the Spurs will once again be a part of the event. The Warriors will host the event in San Francisco at the Chase Center from July 3 to July 6. The Heat and the […]
The Portland Trail Blazers have completed their 2025-26 season with a 42-40 record, a NBA Play-In Tournament victory over the Phoenix Suns, and a 3-1 loss to the San Antonio Spurs in the first round of the 2026 NBA Playoffs. Compared to recently-passed seasons, this year was practically a masterpiece for the Blazers. They set […]
The Portland Trail Blazers ended their 2025-26 season last night with a 114-95 loss to the San Antonio Spurs in the first round of the 2026 NBA Playoffs. There will be plenty of time to let the offseason sink in. Today we’re going to take time for an immediate, though right-brained, question from the Blazer’s […]
Last night, the Spurs capped off a 4-1 first round victory over the Trail Blazers by torching Portland in the first half and then coasting (somewhat uncomfortably at times) the rest of the way. As lopsided as the series looks on paper, I would actually argue that it’s been an ideal training ground for this […]
