For all your Manu Ginobili loving and San Antonio Spurs news
After a too easy and perhaps too fun opening night blowout of the Dallas Mavericks, the Spurs came back down to earth a bit against an injured New Orleans Pelicans club that at least has a healthy Zion Williamson back. It was a back-and-forth, ugly game where neither team ever led by double figures or […]
The Pelicans provided a much tougher test for the Silver and Black tonight than the poorly constructed roster of the Mavericks on Wednesday. The combination of elite shooting and ball movement kept the Spurs defense off balance as the home crowd kept the environment hostile for the Spurs. It was a good learning experience for […]

There’s something almost grotesque in the way that the summer lingers in Texas. Where other regionalities have begun to cool in the 10th month of the annum, a feeling of freshly minted hell permeates throughout the beef state, with 90-degree temperatures still in reach. Fall is here, though, make no mistake. And with it, the […]

There’s no other story. No clever side door to sneak through. We can’t frame this as the top two draft picks squaring off in their NBA debuts. We’re not here to talk about the Spurs starting a season without Gregg Popovich patrolling the sidelines for the first time in decades. And if you came looking […]
What a way to start the season. Victor Wembanyama was excited to play. After eight months without basketball, the 2023 Rookie of the Year went out and dropped forty on the Mavericks on their home court, What was lauded as Cooper Flagg’s career kickoff was soon changed to “Wemby’s World.” Wemby had six dunks, three […]

Wembanyama made up for lost […]

After going undefeated in the preseason for the just the third time in team history — the other two were 1977-78, when George Gervin finished 2nd in MVP voting and first in scoring, and 1997-98: Tim Duncan’s rookie year when they made an NBA-record 36-win improvement — the San Antonio Spurs look primed to make […]

Since the end of the NBA season, it feels like the NBA world has had the San Antonio Spurs on the brain. First, they lucked into the second pick in the draft, selecting Dylan Harper, which raised questions about their roster construction. They then had a fruitful free agency period, acquiring big man depth with […]
The San Antonio Spurs’ season kicks off on Wednesday, and with it comes the weight of expectation. The Spurs have gone from an up-and-coming young team to an expected contender for playoff positioning in the Western Conference. Experts, players, and coaches have all pegged this team as at least a play-in team. We’ll see if […]
Finally, expectations return to San Antonio. After a few years of comfortable mediocrity came a rebuilding process, with its absence of pressure. Now entering the third year of the Victor Wembanyama era, the time to look at the silver linings of playoff-less seasons is over. The Spurs need to return to the postseason. Anything else […]
The Spurs had a strong preseason, winning all five of their games. Beyond the results, there were some really encouraging moments from key players who seemed comfortable with their roles and responsibilities. Some, such as those tied to Victor Wembanyama’s outstanding performance, have been widely discussed. Others were less obvious but are nonetheless likely to […]
The East has always been the NBA’s maligned conference, and this season might be the most obvious example of that. It would be shocking if the 2026 champs came from one of these teams, and Giannis is the only top 6-7 player that resides on this side of the bracket. Still, many revamped teams are […]
It’s my favorite time of the year. The time when I guarantee my predictions and pretend like this article won’t exist in 6 months. This season, there are a few players who are near locks to win certain awards, so I can at least hang my hat on them— hopefully. And if none of my […]

What positives did you see from preseason that you believe will translate to the games that count?

Still, […]
