  1. I swear AM Hoops legit has something against the Kings. Dude seems to always look for opportunities to take unwarranted digs on them.

  2. Bro @ A.M. Hoops you just ain’t delivering like you used to. You ain’t doing enough. I typed this out before the ad then went to a different video

  3. We'll see how different. Based on the first exhibition games, he still seems to feel at home lining up beyond the arc on offense and catching the ball there. Against Orlando he shot 4/16 (2 dunks, 1 lay-in, 1 jumper) for 11 points, because he refuses to get in the paint and catch the ball there. Just like last year. 4/16 is downright inexcusable for an athletic 7'4" player. The way for him to make a real leap this year is to get his butt into the paint on offense. But that's not who he is. He and Popovich are limiting his offensive impact.

  4. The first half of the video was pure gold. So let's fix the rest of it. haha The missing piece isn't a particular player. It will be whether the Spurs pass the ball and move without it like the 2014 Spurs did to win a ring. The Spurs have shown that they are well on their way to mastering that skill in their first three preseason games. Players like Champagnie and Mamu are shooting the lights out from three as well. There have been lots of open looks and many open shots under the basket. PS. CP will NOT be traded because you don't trade a major reason for making it to the Finals!! On paper other teams have more star power, but the Spurs have the mindset to play winning basketball. IOW, CP's alley oops, open shots, ball movement, off-ball movement, and a pretty good defense.

  5. I think the Spurs found the perfect vet in CP3, and I think Wemby will get the respect he deserves with a true pg. I think if they are the 10 or 9, they are right where they should be. That gives them a chance at a decent draft, since they don’t need a franchise player, and still leaves them the potential to grow

  6. Best in the world 😂😂
    Luka and joker laughing from corner
    Till they both are playing anywhere no one is close
    Stamp it this is the truth

  7. Spurs playing the long game. If you’ve paid attention to them over the years, this is what they do

  8. they gotta watch out though… more muscle is more weight, more weight is more stress on the lower extremities, and lower extremities is every 7-footer's most prone parts ever 😅

  9. CP3 is gonna set the locker room straight and get rid of that jealousy shit from last season straight away wemby is your star player treat him like one and he will take you far so feed him the ball let him draw the double teams and you will be found wide open in the corner every time
