  1. Even though he has six turnovers which I think is irrelevant because I already said that he’s going to have to knock off some dust for about a month or so coming back… this man’s passing has tremendously improved which is crazy cause it was already good. I don’t know how much film he watched but his reads are top-tier now

  2. It's only one game and it's not against the best opponent, but his passing game seem really better.
    In the past he was forcing the play a lot, now it look like he's finding his teamate easily.

  3. I missed this dude more than I knew after watching this. He's everything good about the sport of basketball all in one package. This team continues, after all these decades, to be built around doing it right. Around good people. Around having fun, being creative and sharing all the success together.

  4. The Spurs are a play-in team at minimum if Wemby stays healthy. Primary problem remains Mitch Johnson. Last season, fans saw a SIX MONTHS sampling of MJ and were not impressed. This young team needed an alpha male coach to replace alpha male Popovich. I think he purposely sabotaged the team hiring MJ. It preserves his legacy of 5 titles.

  5. Last season I travelled from poland to san antonio to see wemby and week after I bought tickets they announced he's season is over… It was great but I hope someday I will be able to go there again and see the best basketball player on earth ever
    San Antonio ❤

  6. Well done Wemby! Your answer to the double big question around 3:00 was masterfully done. He shifted accountability to himself and didn’t bring have to bring down anybody else with his answer. Love this guy man!

  7. Victor si tu lis ce message dis au mec qui s'occupe des médias training de mettre en langage français parce que franchement il nous respectent pas

  8. Si vous respectez Victor one banama vous mettez la langue française sinon vous ne respectez pas la langue française s'il vous plaît mettez la langue française version sous-titrée un peu de respect s'il vous plaît pour la langue française vous aimez notre joueur vous aimez pas sa langue respecter s'il vous plaît respecter

  9. Here's the translation (95% of the work is done by AI, Turboscribe for voice to text and GPT for French to English) :

    Journalist: Vic, if we really want to nitpick tonight, there were six turnovers. How do you analyze those turnovers?

    Victor: They’re not frustrating turnovers, because — I haven’t rewatched all of them yet, but it seems to me that most came from the right intentions, following the principles we’ve been working on for several weeks. I’m thinking of the one where I tried to pass it to David and sent it into the stands — that one’s pretty much entirely my fault. But it’s not a turnover from over-dribbling or trying to do something crazy. For me, I clearly associate it — without trying to make excuses — with the first preseason game. Nobody’s worried, because those are healthy turnovers.

    Journalist: About the Jackals — it’s a bit disappointing that they were seated so high up in the arena. Couldn’t they have been placed closer to the court?

    Victor: It’s true that there’s some… how can I say this… I think it can evolve. But there are many factors to consider, and some things I’m not necessarily qualified to decide. I know there are issues of pricing, seating, and so on. But in any case, I find it promising for the future, and I think it can only grow in a positive direction. But yes, of course, I’d love for there to be 200 of them already, sitting courtside, obviously. I don’t think that’s possible right now, but I also think we shouldn’t rush things either.

  10. Can we get French translation/subtitles for his videos going forward? Can’t forget about our French fans! GSG!

  11. Welcome back Wemby! We missed you! So glad you are healthy and back with the team. So excited to watch the team this year. You all will do great and we can’t wait to see it! Good luck and health on the season and beyond! Go Spurs Go!
