Talking San Antonio Spurs, NBA, and everything in between - Hosted by @TheTyJager @MacPena @N_Magaro @nicyarbro

This was the moment the #FiestaBros found out that the San Antonio Spurs won the NBA Draft Lottery for Victor Wembanyama #PorVida

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

Missed goaltending call, missed out of bounds call, missed coach’s challenge, and a technical for Mitch Johnson even though he was rightfully fuming over all of those sequences…Spurs salvage the end of quarter meltdown, but that’s an egregious streak of mistakes from the refs…

13-year NBA veteran Jason Collins has died at 47 years old after a battle with Stage 4 glioblastoma. Collins was the first active, openly gay player in NBA history. RIP.

Devin Vassell has been an outstanding help defender all series long and made several momentum-swinging stops.

Forget what the shooting splits say, he has gone on a couple of massive one-man scoring runs for the young Spurs.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

San Antonio's Victor Wembanyama has cleared concussion protocol and will play in Game 4 against the Portland Trail Blazers (3:30 pm ET on ESPN), per me and @malika_andrews.

[Pablo Torre Finds Out @pablofindsout]

NEW INVESTIGATION: Former LSU star and Bulls guard Antonio Blakeney is the unnamed "Co-Conspirator 1" in the NBA gambling scandal, according to law-enforcement officials — and he's still playing.

"This... is the real original sin — but he is continuing to exist under the radar."

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

The San Antonio Spurs win on Christmas Day, and all is right with the world.

TRUST THE SPUR-OCESS

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

We might just have witnessed a preview of what will likely be the future Western Conference Final matchup for YEARS to come in the NBA.

The Spurs and Thunder are both young, deep, have multiple franchise changing players, depth, and a ridiculous stash of draft capital.

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

YOUR. SAN. ANTONIO. SPURS. ARE. BACK. BABY.

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

¡WEMBY MADE DRAYMOND HIS SON ON THAT INBOUND LOB!

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

San Antonio ends the quarter on a 12-0 run and that’s the kind of Spurs defense their championship teams were built on.

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

And just like that the Spurs are 5-0 for the first time in franchise history.

Did I mention De’Aaron Fox has yet to play a game for San Antonio yet?

This team looks ahead of schedule and they’re not even at full strength…

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

Dylan Harper has been so much more impressive than expected right out of the gate for the Spurs.

Never doubted he would pop, but his craft, poise, and creativity have been fantastic from the get-go.

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

Dallas went from having a generational talent in Luka Doncic leading them to a finals appearance to their fans erupting in MVP chants for Wemby in their home arena on opening night in less than one year…

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

Players who had at least 40 points, 15 rebounds, and 0 turnovers in a season opener in NBA history?

K**l M****e
Anthony Davis
Victor Wembanyama

THAT IS THE ENTIRE LIST...

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

Really love that message of “embrace the mundane” from head coach Mitch Johnson during the last huddle.

Feels like so many fans were prepared to write him off last season, but we’re gonna find out who he is this year.

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

The Spurs are putting belt to ass so bad in Dallas that you can actually hear “Go Spurs Go” chants over the TV 🤣

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

Anthony Davis trying to stop Wemby tonight:

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

Kind of hilarious that there’s almost not enough green screen for Wemby because he’s just that freaking tall…

[Noah Magaro-George @N_Magaro]

Fox says he won't be ready to go for start of the season after a hamstring setback.

He tells us "I feel like I'm ready to play right now, but the team doesn't."
