With Victor Wembanyama on the floor, the Spurs generate far more layups for their point guard trio — a trio I spent all summer convinced wasn’t an ideal fit. De'Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle, and Dylan Harper are three downhill guards and none of them is a proven knockdown shooter. On paper the spacing math didn’t work. Mitch Johnson solved it by playing only one or two of them together at once. And Wemby handled the rest. Harper’s at-rim frequency jumps 15.5% with Wemby on the floor. Castle, 14.2%; Fox, 9.7%.

More shots at the rim is one piece. More shots going in at a higher rate is the other. Every rotation player sees a jump, not just the guards. Devin Vassell’s true shooting climbs from 55.2% to 60.8%. Harrison Barnes from 58% to 64.7%. Julian Champagnie from 58.4% to 63.3%. Fox is the exception — his true shooting stays the same.

Some of this increase is thanks to transition offense off stops. Most of it is Wemby’s gravity in the half-court.

Gravity comes in different flavors. The first is simple spacing: his shooting pulls a big out of the paint and the guards drive into an empty lane. The more interesting one is what happens when he rolls. When off-ball defenders decide to stay home on shooters, the big man still needs to prevent a lob to Wemby, which means Fox, Castle and Harper can go one-on-one with a full head of steam and walk into layups.

Of the nearly 400 handler/screener duos to log at least 100 pick-and-rolls this season, Fox/Wemby, Castle/Wemby and Harper/Wemby all rank in the 88th percentile or better in scoring efficiency.

None of this shows up on his line. Wemby finishes those possessions with zero points and zero assists and jogs back down the floor, and the box score insists nothing happened. Something happened.

Young leftist women in 1979, holding up a picture of Ayatollah Khomeini, calling for the modern-day version of the intifada.

Here’s the difference. They won.

At the time, women in Iran had unparalleled rights, beyond anywhere else in the Middle East. They had full suffrage, could hold high office, freedom of dress, and were present in parliament, courts, ministries, and diplomacy. They were widely educated and professionally active in law, medicine, engineering, academia, and the arts. In terms of civil and legal rights, they were equal to—and in some cases ahead of—western women in the 1970’s.

Yet, it wasn’t enough. They wanted revolution. They had been seduced by the false promises. They wanted the Islamist figure who swore to free the oppressed from the oppressor and bring about heaven on earth, a utopia in Iran. We all know how this story ends. Lynchings, eye gauging, amputations, and mass graves.

Now, westerners are falling about themselves in the same giddy delirium, hungry for a glimpse of the nightmare Iranians still haven’t woken up from.

I guess that’s why they say those who don’t know history are doomed to repeat it.

To answer the question: yes, the leftists were executed once they had brought the regime to power. They were executed first. Amnesty reports share gruesome details about how they were loaded into meat trucks, tens of thousands of them, and transported to unknown locations, then hanged in rapid succession. Eye witnesses described the sound of thumping (bodies dropping from gallows) minute after minute, and blood soaked shoes stacked up outside. Families weren’t told where their bodies were, or even that they’d been killed. They were all dumped into mass graves.

@RealSpurnandez @JacobRTobey Do we bounce in pre-season?

[Kosher @koshercockney]

Islamists are using starvation as a weapon of war against Christians in Sudan.

Convert to Islam or starve.

Nobody is talking about this. Instead they lie and point the finger elsewhere so that you don’t see the real genocide in Africa.

I’ll never stop talking about the Christian genocide across Africa. Never.

BREAKING 🔴

Syrian regime forces have slaughtered an American citizen and his entire Druze family in Suwayda.

Hosam Saraya, a U.S. national from Oklahoma and graduate of Oklahoma Christian University, was executed along with his father, brother, uncles, and cousins in a brutal assault by Assad’s forces.
