Spurs Tanking as Popovich Grabs at More Balls

Spurs Tanking as Popovich Grabs at More Balls

Well Victor wanyama has been getting some effusive praise throughout the NBA’s typically inept and moronic media as of late but in this specific instance it’s for a good reason he has been historically excellent as wemi could possibly be one of if not the best rookies we have seen in at least this

Century since the year 2000 there have only been six rookies to average at at least 20 points per game most notably LeBron James Kevin Durant and Luca donic but wemi isn’t just scoring 21 points per game on 47% from the field he is also averaging 10 rebounds and 3 and 1

12 assists becoming just the second rookie in the last 24 years to average a double double joining only wait for it Blake Griffin which let’s take a sidebar here what the hell happened to that guy look at these rookie numbers 23 points per game in his first year which is the

Highest point per game average by any rookie dating all the way back to Allan Iverson in 1996 97 and Griffin did it while shooting nearly 51% from the field and most ironically playing in all 82 games that season ironic because it was his lack of durability and health issues

Which were his ultimate un doing as his rookie line constituted a career high in both points and rebounds per game as his body has systematically betrayed him with Griffin playing over 61 games in just six seasons of his 15-year career all of this to say nothing in sports or

The NBA is guaranteed especially for a player with the size of wanyama but if he can stay healthy my God the ceiling is the the roof the ceiling is the roof let’s make it happen because wanyama is not just posting that aforementioned 20 and 10 per game currently he is also

Leading the NBA in total blocks and in blocks per game by a substantial margin and speaking of durability he has played in 55 of the Spurs 61 games oh and one final thing this kid is shooting 33% from three right now and he is attempting five per game at 7 fo4 all of

His Transcendent Excellence begs the question of just how exactly are the Spurs abysmal ass right now it’s a complete crap speaking of the media though and effusive praise there is arguably no coach ever that has elicited more of it than Greg papovich this despite his uh General truculent

Demeanor did I did I just say that we were pathetic on defense what would you like me to do would you like me to slip my throat or and papovich is the all-time wins leader in NBA history with 1,379 while his five NBA championships are more than anyone in history besides

Phil Jackson’s 11 and read Outbacks nine yet Greg hasn’t been adding many wins to the old record book this year with the Spurs currently sitting in the 15th spot in the west that’s out of 15 teams by the way and Sport recing an atrocious 13 and 48 record trailing only Detroit and

Washington for worst record in the league and the coveted pingpong ball lead in the pending NBA draft lottery which is likely what all of this losing is really about yeah I’m suggesting papovich and the Spurs are in full-blown tank mode currently this is completely be this is shame and why not it’s worked

For papovich before four as he came on as an assistant with the Spurs in 1988 one year after San Antonio took David Robinson with the first overall pick and after four years as an assistant papovich would take over the top spot in 1992 just 5 years later of course in

1997 the Spurs would win the lottery again this time of course legendarily selecting Tim Duncan with the first overall pick and now seven seasons after his retirement another generational big coming courtesy of the pingpong ball gods and it seems like popovic is trying to uh maximize his placement in this

Year’s Lottery by losing as many games as he possibly can that is and the strategy makes perfect sense for Greg papovich who is generally credited as the Godfather of one of the most disgusting strategies in modern-day NBA load management but of course you might be looking at the draft prospects this year and

Wondering just what exactly are the Spurs tanking four but with San Antonio projected currently to get a top three pick wem’s fellow Frenchman Alex SAR another 7 foot1 mutant would be a possibility and okay I see what we’re doing here Greg a pairing of these two

Would have a feel hearkening back to the Duncan Robinson era in a teamup that would present nightmares for teams on the defensive end but there are a number of other players that make sense depending on just where exactly the balls fall for gray including Zachary rishe also from France who is currently

Slated as the number one overall pick in the draft the Serbian Nicola topic and Lithuanian American Matas bazis who is currently playing in the NBA’s g-league with such a variety of foreign born players headlining the upper tier of of this year’s draft lottery it serves as another stunning example of the global

Takedown of the NBA as the winner of the last five League MVPs have all been non-americans while papovich will be right at home in scouting and selecting one of them since the legendary Spurs dynasty was headlined for years by Frenchman Tony Parker Argentinian Manu Joby and of course Duncan who was born

In the Virgin Islands luckily for San Antonio and their budding bright future their Hall of Fame coach feels right at home deploying such dastardly tactics as multi-year tank jobs to get down in the dirt and scr for as many balls as he can get his hands on

Victor Wembanyama has been historically great thus far, so just how have the Spurs been historical trash…
