Melton sounds like he had a setback. I think all 3 of Biid, Melton and Roco should be back by early april.

I have no inside information, but i expect Melton to be shut down or very limited. When you have lingering back issues like this, my guess is we have no real plan to resolve it, and are just tackling pain management.

Thanks guys. Sucks for Melton. I hope he is able to make a complete recovery.

Maybe this kind of thing is why George is apparently considering leaving?

Wemby ALREADY has more BLK + STL than any of the last 9 DPOY winners in the season they won the award:

Wemby - 290 (and counting)
Jaren Jackson Jr. — 254
Marcus Smart — 137
Rudy Gobert — 230
Giannis Antetokounmpo — 127
Draymond Green — 260
Kawhi Leonard — 199
Joakim Noah — 220
Marc Gasol — 219
Tyson Chandler — 145

And we still have 13 games to go

Impressive stat, but I'm just wondering why Wemby is having such little impact.

Spurs are the 23rd ranked defense and have just a 21.7% win percentage (which is down from 26.8% win percentage from last year).

Tanking. Spurs plays 9pts better on defense with wemby 110 DRtg on vs 119 DRtg off.

Wemby has only missed 8 games, though. And they're still a worse team this year with him than last year without him. Virtually same roster.

Wembanyama's steal and block numbers will go down as he becomes a more effective defensive player. Tale as old as time.

Amen Thompson quietly having a great rookie season.

15.4% total rebounding
16.1% assist
2.8% steal
2.9% block
+1.2 on/off plus minus per 100
.141 wing shares per 48

Looking like early Spurs years Kawhi Leonard out there.

Through November I was thinking Houston took the wrong Thompson. Things have changed.

Houston is already mediocre. They're going to be great in a couple of year.

They absolutely have to dump Jalen Green. He's easily their least impactful player and they absolutely cannot have him on a rookie max extension. They need to trade him while he still has value.

Hawks has to trade Trae over Dejounte right?

"Superstar" Mikal Bridges is one of the most hilarious basketball cons in a while.
