- Man, the NBA absolutely BLEW IT
Wemby said he won't be doing a Halloween costume this year because the Spurs play on the 30th and are off on Halloween night. Tragic. - Dejounte Murray's shift key
- Coach Popovich always compliments other coaches but hates getting attention back. I'm giving him no choice now. A mega-thread with quotes from nearly every current NBA head coach:
- Nikola Topic sounds like when they mask a voice to protect their identity
00:00 - "I'll never forget, you wrote me a handwritten note when we won the championship. What you and your organization did at my last game, I'll forever be grateful. Thank you, my friend.
- This dude is communicating like this at 19 years old? On defense? Spurs got another steal
00:00 - "There's no player in the league that everybody talks about [more] after the game. Me and Harrison [Barnes] were on our flight talking about how cool it's going to be at this point in our careers to get a chance to appreciate him day in and out." - Chris Paul on Wembanyama
- 6'10 Rashard Lewis shot 38.6% from 3 when not many bigs were shooting like that. Underrated pickup for the Spurs to bring him in as a player development coach.
00:00 - Flashback to 2022: Becky Hammon has now won 3 WNBA titles in 4 seasons with the Aces.
00:00 - Turns out I didn't give Tim Duncan enough credit. Here he is 'inventing the selfie' in 1997.

01:01Replying to @Josh810The fact that Tim Duncan was walking around with a camcorder dating back to the 1999 Championship wasn't a coincidence. "I was always taking pictures. Things were available to him -- cameras, fun stuff. He's a big tech head. He wanted to start filming things. He enjoyed it." - Hilariously deep pull, but geez. Pop has a point.
Asked Pop about the possibility of increasing Wemby's playing time down the stretch. He said Victor won't play "Sprewell minutes" but "he's got to get up over 30." - When anyone says Wembanyama is only a DPOY candidate cause he's a tall guy that blocks, show them this
