Blake IS TAKING Malaki’s Spot!? San Antonio Spurs News

Blake Wesley has been playing really well lately unfortunately Malachi brandom has not I got no love for the F if you want to play tough and want to hate this I show up and make a statement what is up San Antonio Spurs fans welcome to TSR Sports I got to

Thinking over the weekend like man I really feel like malot brandom’s kind of in the doghouse right now really in a short leash and I caught an article on pounding the rock that really confirmed that I thought you know what let me share a little fli from that article and

Then give my two cents of course give your two cents in the comments down below Spurs fans is Blake Wesley taking Malachi Brandon spot in the rotation or has he already done so let me know the comments down below hit the thumbs up you like to help support the channel and

Subscribe to become part of our awesome Spurs Community let’s get into the article I found first on pounding the rock Malachi brandom is clearly on a short leash right now for the second game in a row he was benched after bad play in the first half and never

Returned seeding his minutes to a rapidly improving Blake Wesley after being pulled for a bad defensive rotation in the first half against Charlotte he ended the first quarter in Washington by getting his pocket picked while dribbling down the clock resulting in a Wizard’s layup just before the

Buzzer Trey Jones returned in his place to start the second quarter and Wesley again got his back of minutes from then on I remember that turnover in the Washington game as I’m sure many of you do I was like oh boy great job Malachi and that was the last time we saw him

That game if we take a look at the last five games just a short sample size of how both players are playing this is Malachi brandom first we look at his minute Spurs fan he played okay in the Bulls game shot terribly from Beyond The Arc actually he’s been shooting terribly

From Beyond The Arc his all short NBA career so far but he did contribute 14 points but since then only 10 minutes against Atlanta he had 16 minutes against Boston and then 8 minutes against Charlotte and then he had that turnover in Washington and was pulled after only playing four minutes now the

Combination of his bad play there and Blake Wesley’s improved play and granted Blake’s game still has a lot of issues he can’t hit a three to save his life I don’t believe he’s hit a three player a three-pointer all year and he’s been struggling mightily from the freest line

But as you can see he has been playing much better 15 minutes the last two games he’s getting you know some assists in his backup rle and been scoring here and there and contributing and he’s got his blazing speed he’s making better decisions all in all just the eyeball

Test really when you look at Malik brandom as of late he’s struggling and Blake Wes is not and you know what we’re going to defend malkey brandom here just for a second SP fans he was drafted as a three-level scorer Now Grant some games he’s only two-level score heck sometimes

He’s a no Lev score and that’s not helping us out he’s not a great defender but he’s kind of in a Malachai brandom point guard experiment where he started point in some games as a starter and now he’s kind of the backup point guard for the Spurs backing up Trey Jones he’s not

A point guard he’s being pushed into that role he is failing at that role and I clearly at least I think he’s losing confidence and he’s clearly seems to be on a very very short lnch but it’s not as highly fair to him that’s not not his

Position and he’s playing way out of position point guard is I think you would agree the hardest position to learn in the NBA and when you’ve been playing one position your whole career and now you’re getting asked to do backup Duty and starter Duty and another

We saw Jeremy so in fail miserably at point guard yeah fail miserably and now Malachi 2 is being severely affected by being put into this role I think he’ll boun bounce back it’ll take time if Doug mcder or ched osma get traded before the very upcoming and close right around the

Corner trade deadline which I think is around February 8th then I’ll probably get those minutes back but he’s on a short leash if he messes up has a turnover hits misses a couple shots has a couple bad defensive plays I think pop to AO are not going to see him again or

Maybe even starting tonight against 76 or 7 p.m. Eastern in NBA TV we’ll be live just little cheap plug maybe Blake has already taken that spot he’s been playing with confidence the turnovers are much less than we had saw previously this season and last season he’s

Finishing so much better at The Rim now it was a running joke on this channel last year and earlier this year in the summer league preseason that Blake Wesley just him going into the paint is essentially a turnover as he just got blocked left and right whenever he would

Go for a layup blocked blocked he would just always put his Defender and his body in a great position for the defender to easily block the shot and he’s doing that far left he’s getting some dunks here and there he plays a very good defense and pretty much

Directly if I’m wrong but I think he shut Trey young down in the second half when he was on him when the Hawks played the Spurs young was having a career type game in the first half Blake was defending him in the second half and Trey could not get anything going so

He’s a much better Defender than Malik brand he’s extremely fast in transition and he is a point guard the Spurs drafted him as a point guard he’s a starting point guard yet no I don’t think so not at all but I think he should clearly be the backup to try

Moving moving forward Trey Jones in needs a rest put Blake in he’s playing at a much better level right now playing with confidence but don’t just don’t give up on Malachai just have him come off to be what he what you draft him for be a score and maybe things will get better

As the season progresses this is a season you know that we keep saying you know experimentation trust the process Etc but I think we also need to put our players in the best position to succeed and having Jeremy soan be a point guard clearly was not the best place for to

Succeed or his teammates surrounding him and Malachi Brandon playing the point clearly not the best place in my opinion from who to succeed and it doesn’t seem to be helping anybody around him either so we’ll see we have four games this Sak week’s first fans we have four games

Next week got a lot of games couple back to backs hopefully wheny minutes restriction gets lifted sometimes this week I know it’s driving you crazy it’s driving me crazy seeing our guy play only 25 26 minutes game barred from playing back to back and we have that

Back to back this weekend and next week so hopefully he he gets back to just being out there as much as possible within reason because he’s fun to watch and the team even though they’re losing still quite a bit has been so much more competitive lately minus I guess the

Celtics game which that’s the Celtics and tonight might be a rough game too against the Sixers I’m very excited to see when against embiid embiid is a big dude correct me if I’m wrong Spurs fans but isn’t about 280 285 if memory serves me correct that’s going to be a tough

Match up for wemy that being said wemy was incredible height and Agility and ability might be able to still defend him well you know being might be able to mus him around but he might be able to reposition himself and affect the shot or block the shot so we’ll see it’ll be

A fun time and hey best luck to both these guys I know some are you saying give up and pick you know give up trade them trade them these were 2022 first round picks I’d like to see both of these guys succeed instead of failing that’s all I got I’ll see you tonight

For the Spurs 76ers thank you for tuning in and as always ghost spurs Go when I feel like this I’m a moral when I feel like this I’m a moral when I feel like this I’m a moral

Should be intersting to see how this plays out!
