Who else is disappointed in Spurs? Not about their standings because it's obvious that they're one from the bottom now but about the recent actions of Wemby's teammates, Vassell, Johnson, and Sochan. This team has no superstar but the moves of these three were too obvious with Wemby. They're not passing him the ball despite his open positions and good plays that can be done. It seems that they cannot see him inside and outside the ring and they won't pass the ball.

That's not right if it wasn't out on the coach design. I mean, if the coach would say pass the ball to Wemby when he is open, they should follow it. Probably the team are just not inspired playing anymore due to their losing streak, and since everyone was focus on Wemby as their best player, they seem not liking it that only the rookie are getting popular, they'll probably just accept it if they are doing better but since they aren't I'm sure there are frustrations among players and that resulted to their bad plays.

IMO, this is just temporary, they'll fix this knowing their coach.

Like it's noticeable and for sure Pop did see those plays but didn't see that coming. I don't know what happened on the lockers but that's pretty much exposed today. I don't think that they're not inspired to do it because of their standing, it is their job and it's about these teammates that have probably intentionally don't really want to pass the ball to Wemby.

They aren't shunning him. Pop is one of the best coaches in the NBA, dudes would be benched if they aren't carrying out his offensive gamelan period. You have to remember these guys are young, they aren't just going to run the offense through wemby everytime if pop doesn't want them to. They are just young that's why they are struggling. They will put it together but this team was never going to compete this year with the big boys just because wemby joined the team.

Yeah, that's acceptable already that this year they're totally out. And it's true that they're still young maybe it's actually a play that Pop have told them. Anyway, let it be and I just wish to see them improve for the upcoming season since this season is no longer optimistic for them to be and it's not going to do them any more good even if they win some games. On the other hand, I think that Donovan Mitchell is doing the opposite.

Spurs urgently need to add any player whose position is point guard to its roster. The point sochan experiment of popovich, who normally doesn't get involved in such ambitious things, has turned into a disappointment and tre jones can't give what is expected. Even if rajon rondo came now, he would put our idle youngsters in order, the situation is that dire. The importance of the point guard can be seen by looking at Houston this year. As soon as fred vanvleet arrived, the team started to get wins. It was a mistake for the spurs not to approach vanvleet more seriously.
