Kawhi scared us. He cut us deep. What we, as fans, did wrong is expect Kawhi to be Tim. We should not now expect Wemby to be Kawhi. Let Wemby be Wemby. He wanted to be a Spur. We wanted him. Let’s enjoy watching the young man grow and dominate. Like Pop says, don’t be in a hurry to win.
I never liked Kawhi anyway. I think the Spurs fans – who pay tons of money to see a game – should be able to boo Kawhi as much as they wish – Pop has had his day & should just retire. Lets face it – the Spurs are just bad this year. The guys that are on the team – just aren't any good. The starters they have would be back ups on a good team – if they even made the team. The Spurs fans this year shouldn't expect much out of them this year. Don't get worked up much on the Team's record or standings this year – just look at them as entertainment. They are not going anywhere this year…
Bro if we lose wemby, it's gonna be the fault of san antonio reporters trying to create drama
He is European and love football. Your club here is your identity, he won't give up that easily on the Spurs especially since he wanted Spurs.
Moreover the Spurs is one of the only team with an identity and not firing and hiring people over dumb things like a tweet heck, Popovich has been coaching the Spurs for as long as I have lived. It's hard fiding an actual team and not bandwaggons trying to get as much big names as possible with money. He isn't about the star life he is about that basketball life. He is about winning yes but he has been to bad team and hasn't been raised in the star system of the US basketball he knows winning takes time.
Have a little patience, everyone! And, yeah Clan, they are called Kick-Ups or Keepy Uppies!
These Fans are annoying like Kawhi left Big Whoop 🤦🏽 Stop making your life so depressing for no reason
Parker threw Kawhi under the bus hard bro
Clan, you’re missing the point of this. The front office needs to do better for wemby. This has nothing to do about kawhi. This has to do with the rate of development. At this rate we won’t see winning basketball until about yr 3 or 4. If the spurs had put seasoned players that can teach him winning basketball and winning plays, we could start looking at the play in for this or next year. The sooner wemby can learn to play winning basketball the better of a career he will have. The Sochan experiment needs to happen in the g-league; spurs have always done it this way but to do this in wemby’s first season is a bad call. Next year, when we do get a point guard, that pg will need to develop from scratch which is going to be another losing season. We pretty much have a college team out there. There’s no reason to be this young, inexperienced and trying to experiment
New generation spurs fans they think everything works like a microwave. You just put it in for a few minutes and it’s done no patience no life experience. What do you expect from people like that
Don’t forget these so-called spurs fans are probably trolls. This is the new age new era fans troll other pages. Don’t believe everything you hear they’re trying to create divide within Spurs nation it happens on all the Facebook pages for every team in the NBA and all sports.
Kawhi gave us trust issues 😂💀
I want him to leave the spurs. He already has pro experience, he is surrounded by a bad team. I need a good team, not a superstar team, but a team with almost a PG lmao.
Spurs fans should still just be happy we still got Wemby and he’s as good and humble as he is
French guy here. IMO Spurs fans have no reason to fear him bouncing in the foreseeable future and for several reasons, some that you just listed, and some I'd like to share. Now all I'm saying can be chalked up to speculation and armchair psychology (however I'm basing it on interviews he gave here and there), but hey:
–The guy wants nothing else than to prove he can be a great basketball player, before even thinking about championship contention, he wants everyone convinced, including himself above everyone else, that he can talk the talk before walking the walk. As long as he doesn't feel like he's at the peak of his possibilities, I'd be surprised if he wanted to bail; wether to chase Ws, rings, dough, or any combination of the above. Especially considering where he landed.
–On this subject, as you pointed out, he's got Pop and the Spurs, both of whom have pretty much said or shown that they wanted to articulate the future around him. Which ties with the first point: he knows that 1) his progression will be looked after (which is his main concern atm imo), and 2) that he will face no bullshit like pigeonholding or straight up freezing out like some rookies can encounter if they're unlucky, even if they're high profile.
–Something that can have a lot to do with the fact that he's European/French: I don't know how it is exactly in the U.S., but from here the mystique of a player growing up along a club/franchise to carry it to the top is really strong. Probably because of how pro sport is played here. But even with the NBA, most of us were brought up when big name champions were called Johnson, Bird, Thomas, Jordan, Olajuwon, Bryant, even Duncan or obviously Parker etc. I think you can see what every one of them had in common. Now you can argue that Wemby is born in '04 and didn't live through that. But for one part he still probably grew with basketball minds around him that were on this mindset. And for the other part, I am one generatinon removed from the kid and he still thinks and talks as if he was my age, so what the hell. More seriously though, this could have been a problem if he landed in Charlotte, Houston or Detroit because there's no saying if the organizations there are solid enough to not sh*t the bed around a generational prospect. I'm not saying they would. I'm saying there would be a doubt. In San Antonio? Not so much. And we know that the conversation in the above paragraph is only relevant for franchise players, our would be franchise players. But I mean come on.
–So the guy wants to prove he's the sh*t and believe me he wants to leave his mark if fate allows him to, he wants to be the best he possibly can be, and he's not unaware that this could mean being one of the greats either. He wants to be the best more from a philosophical pov than a competitive pov, I would argue. Conquering a title with the team that drafted you helps asserting that. With a team that for all intents and purposes would be built around you, helps asserting that. Spending your career there helps asserting that. I honestly cannot say, 6 or 7 years from now, if he's at the level we expect him to be and the team cannot seem to break the glass ceiling, wether he would go elsewhere to seek a ring or forego that to try and win it SA. I can't know where his winning mentality would tilt the scale then. But imo he's not considering leaving before that. And I wouldn't be surprised if he was like "I am a Spur and the Spurs are me, live or die", but this I wouldn't know.
–Lastly, we're talking about a kid with a rather privileged upbringing and a rather well off family, even before he joined the league. As such, and taking his obsession for the game in consideration also, I'd be very surprised if money was a crucial factor going on. I'm not saying they were millionaires before he entered the league. I'm saying that I would be surprised if he didn't consider himself pretty much set moneywise just with his rookie years, and I'm not even considering sponsorship deals. Furthermore I don't see him gravitating towards "more glamorous markets" just for the sake of it. Remember, he's "traveling" here to play basketball. Not to say every city in the league is the same for foreigners, absolutely not. But you're still mainly going to the US to play basketball, no matter where; you're not born here dreaming of the big cities, you actually are in the big leagues from the get go when you play in the NBA. And btw, to a non american and from a pure basketball standpoint, I would say that SA can certainly be as attractive and "glamourous" as LA, NY, Chi-town or Boston. Plus he doesn't strike me as the type to crave nightlife and rubbing elbows with stars for the sake of it, so there's that.
With the Spurs playing the Hawks tonight it makes me think if we still had Murray. Of course I know we probably wouldn't have gotten Wemby and I also wouldn't want him back with what he said about the Spurs and what not but he definitely would fill in what we are missing
Bro hell nah chill.. I been born n raised in San Antonio and actually current season ticket holder. Section 120 baby. When kawhi left it was different. He is from California and wanted to go back home.. imagine being from California and then living in San Antonio .. Do you live in San Antonio my friend? Do you know the area? Being from LA and moving to SA is a huuuuuuuuge difference. But with Wemby if we show patience and respect I see him having a 20 year career here
I don’t think he wants to be at big city. Remember what he said about Madison square garden? It was small lmao… plus he wasn’t too thrilled to be in NY
It is not an issue, there is a certain expectation with Spurs fans. We know what a good product is, and this is not.
I do not blame the Spurs for the PG situation. Think about it, we had Primo, who was selected to be the pg of the future and he flaked out, then the organization got Payne, who chose not to be here. So that is evidence that they at least tried to remedy the situation.
i cant say i didnt see this coming nothing has changed from this team from last year, but look at our stacked draft class next year. We are sure to add high notable talent to this roster and even trade a 1st for a vet if the spurs felt like it.
Amen man, amen 🙏
Dejounte Murray didnt want to be a Spur but he didnt deserve to be one anyway. If Murray doesn't give a shit about us then why should we give a shit about his ungrateful ass?
