Game Preview: San Antonio Spurs vs. Portland Trail Blazers

Victor Wembanyama may miss some time after a rib injury scare in the San Antonio Spurs 115-102 win over the Philadelphia 76ers. Reports indicate Wembanyama’s injury isn’t serious, and he will likely suit up for the one required game he has to play to qualify for end-of-season awards. However, he will likely miss the Spurs’ […]

The Spurs’ preferred playoff matchups

The San Antonio Spurs will play their first playoff game in seven seasons in two weeks. The team has blown out all of their expectations on their way to home-court advantage through two rounds of the playoffs. As the season comes to an end, it seems unlikely the Spurs will catch the Oklahoma City Thunder […]

Victor Wembanyama (rib contusion) listed as Doubtful for Trail Blazers game

Victor Wembanyama has been listed as doubtful for Wednesday’s game against the Trail Blazers, but “there’s confidence” he will suit up for one of the Spurs’ last three games, achieving award eligibility, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania. Wembanyama suffered the injury when he collided with Paul George in the second quarter of the Spurs’ Monday […]

The NBA’s 65-game rule addresses the wrong problem

The NBA invented the 65-game limit rule to address what it perceived to be a major problem (that, fairly or not, will always get tied back to Gregg Popovich and the Spurs): load management. The idea was simple: star players were being rested in situations such as the second night of back-to-backs or late in […]

What We Learned from the Spurs win over the Sixers

I guess it’s a useful exercise, as we tiptoe ever closer to the promised land, to take one more quick glance at the abyss. A Victor Wembanyama injury, short term, long term, chronic, you name it, is the proverbial other shoe waiting to drop. It’s not an anchor that weighs the franchise down, and it’s […]

Shaky Monday night for Sixers in Eastern Conference standings

The Philadelphia 76ers suffered a disappointing defeat on Monday night to a San Antonio Spurs club that lost star Victor Wembanyama to a rib injury midway through the game. The loss moved Philadelphia out of a tie with Toronto and down into the seventh seed, which would mean an entry in the Play-In Tournament rather […]

‘Twas the night(s) before the playoffs, when all through the Frost Bank Center;Not a creature was stirring, not even The Coyote;The banners were hung by the rafters with care;In hopes that Victor Wembanyama’s ribs healing soon would be there; “The children were nestled all snug in their beds,While visions of Manu Ginóbili’s fractured elbow on […]

Open Thread: Victor Wembanyama leaves game with left rib contusion

Spurs star center Victor Wembanyama did not return for the second half of Monday night’s game between the Spurs and 76ers. Early in the second quarter, Wemby collided with Philadelphia’s Paul George at the half-court line. Victor initially exited the game and headed off court, but returned toward the end of the first half. His […]

Spurs hold off 76ers for 60th win despite losing Wembanyama to rib injury

For a moment, everything stopped. Inside the Frost Bank Center, the buzz of a marquee matchup, Victor Wembanyama versus Joel Embiid, gave way to silence as Wembanyama walked slowly toward the locker room, his night cut short before halftime. It should have been the turning point, but it became something else entirely. The San Antonio Spurs didn’t flinch. They […]

Even with Wemby exiting the game, Sixers can’t top Spurs

Man, it would have been nice to steal that one. The Sixers fell to the San Antonio Spurs 115-102 Monday night. They are now 43-36 and have again dropped a half game below the sixth seed in the East. Joel Embiid, clearly with some extra juice for this matchup, led the Sixers with 34 points […]
