Not sure if I'd call it a run. We're up 21, and we were up 15 when he sat.

Literally game 1 with a young team, 'only' up 21.

Cooper will be an amazing player going fowards but being talked/hyped up about as being the best white American prospect since Larry Bird is a very heavy and unfair burden.

Lol. Who is he competing against? Hayward? Morrison? Flagg clears all of them easily

This team looks completely different than the teem I saw the last couple of seasons. Their effort on D has been way higher than I've seen it

I think Flagg is going to be ok. He seems to be able to get his shot off most of the time with no issue.

My concerns with him are not really addressed in this game (3 point shot and ability to score outside of turnaround jumpers), but it is only one game.

I am not seeing generational prospect though. Like forget Wemby, I am still not seeing the Lebron comparison yet.

Spurs are ready for a contending season, star power, depth and freshness is there.

Btw Harper will be so good once he polishes his jumper, he's so smooth as a ballhandler

When healthy last season he was arguably top 5 along with Jokic, Giannis, SGA and Doncic.

Two firsts we traded for him. Two.

Harper landed in the perfect spot. I never thought he could carry an NBA team but with Wemby the top dog he'll never need to

Hoopstar23 · Post #515 » by **Hoopstar23** » Thu Oct 23, 2025 3:53 am

Wemby taking multiple dumps on AD all night!

Man, this version of Wemby who plays inside. It's what we all asked for and all I can say is..smdh

It’s notable how many fewer 3s Wemby is taking

Who wins?
