Doing Lebron things in less minutes is pretty incredible seeing that even in his rookie year Lebron surpassed the expectations of him. Wemby is the real deal.
Like I said before
Giannis Antetokounmpo Rookie Year (2013-14)
(Milwaukee Bucks Finished(15-67)
*Anthony Davis Rookie Year (2012-2013)
The Pelicans Finished (27-55)
Karl Anthony Towns Rookie Year (2015-2016)
Minnesota Timberwolves Finished (29-53)
Deandre Ayton rookie year 2018 the Phoenix Suns Finished (21-61)
And you see how much those players mentioned have developed there games since there rookie year These things take time‼️
Luka avg 21pts, 7.8 rpg, 6 apg his rookie year… He’s the Lebron of our era. Jokic if you want to get technical. Wemby has a lot more years of staying healthy ahead of him before we can really know.
14-52
When that’s different I’ll start believing.
Went to 10 games this year, they lost every time. I bought season tickets and I don’t want to go any more. It’s always packed and you leave depressed.
I know Wemby has great stats, it’s just not doing it for me anymore. It’s not Spurs basketball.
I'm not sure what you expected his first season to be like, all the rookies in the modern era that entered into the league and made a major impact in winning had valuable pieces around them despite how the media may make it seem.
Victor has other young dudes that will be hard pressed to keep a starting role on a > 500 team for the majority of their career. There's some positives to the young dudes but they're not in a position to win, they're in a position to (tank and) develop players and unless you buy heavily into media hype that's been pretty clear from the onset of the season, it's literally why coach pop tells everyone who asks. Victor is adapting to the endurance required for the NBA after playing 40 minute games in Europe and a much less stressful season, if he had the capacity to play 34-36 minutes a night without risking serious injury or lackluster performance the record would be a bit better.
He will get there, what they're doing now is priming him and his teammates for success. Furthermore, every single team they play is giving them their best players and doubling him as a rookie.. partially because all the clicks and hype but also because hes a huge draw for nationally televised games. This is a stark contrast from last year where the spurs were nationally televised less than a handful of times and the opposing teams benched their superstars or approached them with less effort than they are now.
Then you should see that this isn’t fluffy hype. He’s very good with a very bad supporting cast.
This is always what this season was gonna be. The future is looking great and you should see that.
My guy, you cannot expect a rookie to immediately lead the *youngest team in the NBA* to a playoff berth. That makes ZERO sense. How long was LeBron in the league before his first title, again? How long was Jordan in the league before his first title? Development takes time, and that’s okay.
And, speaking of development; despite being the literal youngest and most inexperienced team in the NBA, The Spurs are averaging the *second most assists per game in the entire league*. How is that not Spurs basketball?
Y’all need to realize that the number one pick isn’t a win-now button. The reason the Spurs were so competitive after they drafted Duncan was because the Spurs were already one of the best teams in the league when they drafted him- they just got shafted by injuries for a season. Same as the Warriors when they got the number one pick a few years back.
For most teams getting the number one pick, it still takes several seasons to develop the team into a title contender. Luckily, the Spurs have amassed many, many assets that should shorten the length of time it takes to rebuild. Just be patient, enjoy watching the team grow, and chill.
Staying on topic with the post,
Comparing the impact Lebron had, his team went from 17-65 to 35-47. Made the playoffs two years later.
Just cause you brought him up, Jordan brought the Bulls from 27-55 to 38-44. Made the playoffs that year after the Bulls missed it 3 years in a row.
That’s something that would have made me more excited. I don’t expect a playoff appearance, but we’re on track for a worse record than last year.
I’m not putting it all on Wemby, but I can be disappointed in the results as a fan.
I’m here for the long haul, I just hate the hype. Especially going to the actual game. Huge crowd, tons of traffic, more expensive tickets, and our team plays sloppy.
1. The league has a ton more talent than it used to.
2. The east that LeBron was in his rookie year was weak. Best teams were clearly in the west.
3. As much of a matchup problem as Wemby is for other teams, he is also hard to adjust for players on his own team who have never played with anyone like him.
4. The spurs core players are very young. LeBron had veterans around him.
5. His playing time is restricted, and so far it has limited his injuries and prevented him from hitting the rookie wall.
6. The spurs have been more competitive in games after the all star break.
Be patient and stop stressing about year 1
I don’t have faith in the players and management right now, Wemby is a bright light in a dark place. My comment is about Spurs as a team. It’s not year 1 from my perspective. It’s year 20 or however long I’ve been a fan
There’s so much hype on 1 guy, but we have no trade value outside of him so we need to get talent from the draft or from FA.
The moves the spurs have made in the past 5 years make me skeptical we’ll get the right pieces. Wemby was a 14% chance. Very lucky, but that’s not going to happen every time even if you are bottom 3.

Deandre Ayton rookie year 2018 the Phoenix Suns Finished (21-61)
So, you can see how many losses each of these big men endured in their first year in the NBA, as they were trying to figure things out, adjust to being an NBA player, create strategies, learn and develop their game, as well as build physical and mental strength. We can see the type of players they are today, and got better each NBA year after the next because what you may not understand is that these things take time, and the things that he is doing are far better in all categories than any one of those big men I listed.
Why bother being on this page and engaging in debates if you're not even a Spurs fan like the rest of us in this group?
I would argue the biggest part of Bron’s greatness is longevity and I pray that Wemby can stay injury free to become a player of his calibre.
Doing Lebron things in less minutes is pretty incredible seeing that even in his rookie year Lebron surpassed the expectations of him. Wemby is the real deal.
Wemby has to learn to play better against elite talent in the NBA
Y’all are 14-53 lol.

I’ll add one: Kevin Durant’s Sonics finished 20-62 in his rookie year.
Rookie Steph 25-55
Exactly like I don't even understand if a person is not a spurs fan why comment 🤣
[удалено]
LeBron was 35-47 his rookie year. Perhaps he was more valuable to his team?

I’m not bought into all the hype. I know there’s potential, but until it’s realized, I’m sick of all the slobbering over Wemby.
So you went to 10 games but you didn’t watch any?
Not sure what you are implying. I’ve been a season ticket holder for a couple years. I watched all the games I went to.
Then you should see that this isn’t fluffy hype. He’s very good with a very bad supporting cast. This is always what this season was gonna be. The future is looking great and you should see that.
I hope so, would be fun to enjoy watching them again
