This shit happens like a dozen times or more every game lmfao i have no idea what the fuck the spurs are doing.

I knew Wemby was playing with a handicap the second he went and made a wide open phantom lob just to show his team what it would look like if they gave him the ball
nigelwiggins
That pass from Sochan to Wemby also deserves a clip
volantredx
I love how casual Stacey is about that. The play isn’t even over and he’s already calling out the fact that Wemby had a dunk with no shot of being contested and somehow it doesn’t happen.

Imagine Trae Young with Wemby 😮💨
Cloudz777
Selfish basketball, just make the pass for easy points. You not getting those 2 points when facing good defense
YoungThrowaway_
For anyone wondering who understandably doesn’t watch Spurs games, this is a common occurence. This happens all game long, every game.
He does everything he can to get in position and sochan runs past him to make a seemingly harder pass to someone else.
The bulls commentators were roasting the entire roster for genuinely seeming like they dislike Vic. Unbelievably frustrating to watch
jor301
Johnson still makes the shot here but man, there were tons of examples in this game where wemby had his man sealed or a bad switch from the bulls went unpunished due to lack of awareness by spurs ball handlers.
GuessableSevens
I’m 100% convinced Pop is not actually doing any coaching for this team. This does not look like a team being coached by a real person. Dude needs to fucking retire ASAP for Wemby’s sake so these players can start playing seriously and become accountable.
I know they’re all generally shit, but they need to be disciplined if they’re gonna play this badly. If you aren’t gonna bench guys for playing poorly it just keeps happening.
Chew-kok-
Trae young and Victor would go hard as fuck.
Anyways, put me in that game and i will average 30 assists.
mMounirM
I’m not sure why Pop is not tearing into them for this repeated behavior. too old to give a fuck?
ArnoldisKing
i saw the box score in like the third quarter and was wondering why the fuck does this guy not have more shots
kyleb402
Are they icing out a rookie, or just incompetent?
He’s clearly your best player, it’s malpractice not to get him the ball.
YoungThrowaway_
Listen, I really don’t want to make this thread a Chet v Wemby thing, because it’s basically every thread anyways, but this is why context **matters** for the debate.
This is what he has to deal with on a nightly basis.
iRockaflame
Trae would average 18 assists with Wemby easy work

How tunnel vision are the other Spurs?? They can’t be sure to miss a 7’4″ French guy.
Is it Pop way of tanking without being noticed by the League?? Spurs fans pls tell me
Street-Common-4023
Idc some players on that team is selfish and have some hatred towards him or something. Like bron first year on the Cavs with his teammates
markmaybach
He needs Lamelo Ball in his life.
Ken10Bands
But people wanna act like his teammates aren’t actively holding him back
BetweenTheBuzzAndMe
The Spurs refusal to even try Devonte’ Graham is honestly infuriating and I’m not even a Spurs fan. Passing was Graham’s best trait in Charlotte. dude made Biyombo look almost serviceable on offense, he should have a field day if they ever let him play with Wemby.
Excellent-Cod-3430
All summer long I had to hear about how the Spurs were the perfect place for Wemby to go because of Pop
Well Pop can’t get on the floor and pass him the ball. And he’s retiring soon anyway so who knows how the Spurs are set for the future
NetGlass4387
is player development refusing to make the right plays all game every game? cuz this is what happens every spurs game, frustrating to watch tbh
introvertedguy13
They’re derailing Wembys growth imo.
Funkytadualexhaust
Someone gin up top 10 missed assists to Wemb highlight reel stat.
_dim1
Simmons is available @Spurs. He’d get Wemby the ball.
ZenMon88
is #3 keldon johnson? LOL that man seems like he didn’t want to look at Wemby there and just did his own thing.
whatstocome
Seems like the other younger players may not want to defer to Wemby and are intentionally refusing to pass him the ball. This is when Pop and the rest of the coaching staff has to make it clear that it’s Wemby’s team and the offense has to be tailored for him. If these players don’t wanna “play ball” then they should go to the trading block.

Wemby probably won’t win Roty because his garbage team simply won’t give him the opportunity to thrive lmao
Zam_Sakura
Absolutely frustrating to watch and it happens ALL GAME LONG! I don’t understand how we are this far into the season and this hasn’t been addressed. I get not having a point guard but these are simple passes most NBA players should be able to make.
789Trillion
It’s a great question I’ve been trying to figure out all year. All I can come up with is that he’s not trying to win. I wouldn’t quite call this being patient and developing players though. At some point guys have to get better.
Outrageous_Squash677
they need a actual point guard. sochan is a ass point guard no idea why they were doing with that decision.
atirad
Seriously Spurs teammates playing like they don’t want Wemby to succeed in the NBA wtf.
Balsamic_ducks
Im not even a spurs fan and im begging them to draft Nikola Topic. He’ll get wemby the ball
Old_Man_Riverwalk21
Nah it’s truly horrible basketball to watch, in fact it’s so bad it really has me thinking Pop shouldn’t be coaching anymore. I genuinely believe on a team with even just regular bad passing that Wemby would average 25 easy right now.
This is the worst collection of passers I’ve ever watched in terms of the guys with high usage. Keldon and Vassell have moments of decent vision but are looking for their shot almost every time. Sochan at point guard is unironically basketball terrorism, he should have the lowest usage of anyone on our team. He’s an awful shooter, scorer, and decision maker and hasn’t really been impressive on defense this year. I really hope our front office gets their head out of their ass and realizes we need to trade for a veteran lead guard.
IRanOutOf_Names
I don’t care who the hell it is, please just play an NBA level PG. Magic need to stabilize the gaurd rotation for the long term, ask them for one. Hell, you could take on a contract like Lowry or Scary Terry.
Pr0tanoia
I’m not going to be surprised if Pop asks the players not to pass to Wemby all the time even with easy shots. I feel like Pops is still purposely tanking the team for a high pick next year. He believes this is the only last season to tank since Wemby in the next few years will be hard to tank anymore.
Nutholsters
I really wish they’d gut this entire team of wanna-be superstars man. You have a generational talent and all season you’ve refused to pass him the ball. I quit watching Spurs games because of it. I wanna see Wemby actually play man. And this team just will not let him. How can you have so many selfish players on a terrible team? It’s mind blowing fr.
Yupadej
Sign Kemba Walker, he can set up Wemby. NBA teams deliberately trying to be bad is sad. No competitiveness from many teams. They are wasting an elite talent for “Sochan”
Afraid-Department-35
So much selfish ball.
darkstar8239
If the spurs dont want to use him, we’ll take him on the bulls for lavine
Nutholsters
All I’m saying is, if I were an NBA caliber player, I’d average 15 assists a game lmfao

Wemby: “Guys I can touch the rim on my tip toes pass the ball”
Spurs: “Teehee spin move”
Ninneveh
These dudes know they arent long for the Spurs, so just getting their’s while they can.
cmackchase
Pop has to be telling them to do this on purpose to tank. Otherwise just trade for Chris Paul and have Wemby be good.
DaCoinSlayah
This is on Pop more than anybody
jyozefu
Other Spurs players shadowbanning Wemby lmao
imaginaryResources
the ball handler ignored an open guy just to dribble and draw 3 defenders to the exact same spot to take a more difficult shot. It’s classic selfish hero ball and the reason the spurs suck so much. I hate watching their games everyone around him is so bad
Drugsbrod
His teammates are just padding or doing things to justify getting another contract in the NBA
