<v Speaker 2>Spurs Weekly Podcast and our annual Awards show coming up.

32
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:08.039
<v Speaker 2>But let's start Spurs fans. What a season? All right?

33
00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:10.400
<v Speaker 2>What a season? It was kind of like we were

34
00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:13.560
<v Speaker 2>playing with house money once Greg Popovich went down. It

35
00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:17.080
<v Speaker 2>was a weird season because when Greg Popovich went down,

36
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:20.199
<v Speaker 2>we were like, man, what's gonna happen? Is this team

37
00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:23.120
<v Speaker 2>gonna fold? Are they gonna go under? But they showed

38
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:26.960
<v Speaker 2>so much grit, determination and drive throughout the season. I

39
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:30.240
<v Speaker 2>can't wait to see this when it comes to let's say,

40
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:34.439
<v Speaker 2>playoff time next year. Yeah, let's say that, Spurs fans,

41
00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:39.879
<v Speaker 2>let's speak it into existence. The Western Conference is a

42
00:02:40.039 --> 00:02:44.039
<v Speaker 2>tough conference, but San Antonio hung tough, also played spoiler

43
00:02:44.120 --> 00:02:47.520
<v Speaker 2>to several teams and positioning, so on and so forth.

44
00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:51.120
<v Speaker 2>But compared to last year, the San Antonio Spurs did

45
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:54.199
<v Speaker 2>ay have a positive season. In the offseason, they went

46
00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:56.639
<v Speaker 2>out and got some great veterans on this team with

47
00:02:56.759 --> 00:02:59.599
<v Speaker 2>Chris Paul and Harrison Barnes, who are up for a

48
00:02:59.639 --> 00:03:02.520
<v Speaker 2>few this year. In their own right here on the show,

49
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:07.840
<v Speaker 2>Chris Paul showed why he's a winning formula for any team.

50
00:03:08.280 --> 00:03:11.240
<v Speaker 2>Every team he's gone to, the win percentage has gone up,

51
00:03:11.439 --> 00:03:15.800
<v Speaker 2>and the Spurs win percentage jumped all the way up

52
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:19.560
<v Speaker 2>the thirty four wins. I know we expected more Spurs fans,

53
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:23.680
<v Speaker 2>but the problem is here in San Antonio, you've gotten

54
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:28.360
<v Speaker 2>two use to the ninety nine championship, three to five, seven,

55
00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:32.240
<v Speaker 2>almost making it, Ina, almost making it. In two thousand

56
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:35.360
<v Speaker 2>and two, we should have won, We should have won

57
00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:41.520
<v Speaker 2>five straight. But as we know in sports, injuries happen.

58
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Things happen, and it happened this year with Greg Popovich.

59
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:49.280
<v Speaker 2>Greg Popovich going down, it was almost like a surreal

60
00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:52.400
<v Speaker 2>moment here in San Antonio. A lot of you Spurs

61
00:03:52.439 --> 00:03:54.960
<v Speaker 2>fans were complaining, oh he needs to move on. He

62
00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:59.159
<v Speaker 2>needs to let somebody in, new team, new players, young guys.

63
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:01.400
<v Speaker 2>We need a young coach. And guess what when he

64
00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:07.199
<v Speaker 2>went down, you guys still complained about the coaching. For

65
00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:09.840
<v Speaker 2>somebody like Mitch Johnson to come in and do what

66
00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:13.400
<v Speaker 2>he did, you better praise the good Lord that he

67
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:15.439
<v Speaker 2>did as well as he did, and we're gonna praise

68
00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:18.839
<v Speaker 2>him on this show. Were there moments that the coaching

69
00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:24.120
<v Speaker 2>staff messed up rotations, Sure, but keep in mind Mitch

70
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:27.839
<v Speaker 2>Johnson never played a game in the NBA. He only

71
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:31.560
<v Speaker 2>played at Stanford with the Lopez Twins. He is a

72
00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:36.800
<v Speaker 2>basketball mind and he's been underneath Greg Popovich for several years.

73
00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:39.439
<v Speaker 2>Even at the end of this year when they asked

74
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:42.959
<v Speaker 2>Wimby what's to come in the coaching position, he said

75
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:46.480
<v Speaker 2>he'd like to see Mitch return. The team has taken

76
00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:50.120
<v Speaker 2>the Mitch. You the fan have not taken the mitche

77
00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:54.240
<v Speaker 2>But keep in mind, our Obi Wan went down, our

78
00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:57.879
<v Speaker 2>Luke Skywalker went down. We were left with Han Solo

79
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:00.560
<v Speaker 2>and the crew to defend the Rebel bas and we

80
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:05.040
<v Speaker 2>didn't do that bad of a job. And if you

81
00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:08.160
<v Speaker 2>didn't follow the Star Wars reference, Obi Wan was Popovich

82
00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:12.000
<v Speaker 2>when Ben Yama was Skywalker. You got it right, You

83
00:05:12.120 --> 00:05:14.360
<v Speaker 2>got it? Okay, all right, just making sure you're following

84
00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:18.000
<v Speaker 2>the bouncing basketball here on the show today. But it

85
00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:23.480
<v Speaker 2>was a weird year. We still had an older Jedi,

86
00:05:23.720 --> 00:05:26.879
<v Speaker 2>almost like our Mace wind Do on the team. Why

87
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:30.000
<v Speaker 2>am I going all Star Wars. I'm just surprised. I

88
00:05:30.040 --> 00:05:33.800
<v Speaker 2>know all these names Marvel movies. I should have went

89
00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:36.519
<v Speaker 2>with our Mace wind Dow was kind of like O

90
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:38.920
<v Speaker 2>Our Yoda. Let's call him our Yoda. He's twenty years

91
00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:42.920
<v Speaker 2>in the league CP three. He was our Yoda and

92
00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:46.000
<v Speaker 2>he was leading this team out there, leading a young

93
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:53.240
<v Speaker 2>Jedi crew including Steph Castle. We just hope Steph Castle

94
00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:55.480
<v Speaker 2>doesn't turn to the dark side become Darth Vader. That's

95
00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:58.480
<v Speaker 2>another story. All right. We're done with the Star Wars references.

96
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:02.360
<v Speaker 2>But a lot of you understood what I was saying,

97
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:06.639
<v Speaker 2>didn't you. But us Spurs fans were sitting here wondering

98
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:08.160
<v Speaker 2>what was going to happen to this team. But we

99
00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:10.399
<v Speaker 2>were above five hundred for a majority of the year.

100
00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Early in the year, you know, we were thirteen and eleven,

101
00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:18.600
<v Speaker 2>fifteen and twelve, seventeen and fifteen and we started to

102
00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:20.319
<v Speaker 2>slip a little bit. But the one thing we got

103
00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:24.199
<v Speaker 2>to look at the silver lining behind all this. We

104
00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:29.879
<v Speaker 2>didn't have huge losing streaks like last year ten, thirteen, fourteen, nineteen.

105
00:06:30.279 --> 00:06:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Does everybody remember that nineteen game losing streak? Oh man, man,

106
00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:38.680
<v Speaker 2>it took me back to the days of nineteen eighties

107
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:41.319
<v Speaker 2>when I watched the Spurs and they weren't that good

108
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:43.240
<v Speaker 2>and they had one of the worst teams in the NBA.

109
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:47.240
<v Speaker 2>It reminded me of the team before David Robinson got here.

110
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:51.439
<v Speaker 2>It was just really bad. But the Spurs didn't have

111
00:06:51.519 --> 00:06:53.839
<v Speaker 2>that bad of a season and they're not far off.

112
00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:56.879
<v Speaker 2>Ladies and gentlemen, especially in the West, we do need

113
00:06:56.920 --> 00:06:59.160
<v Speaker 2>a couple pieces right now. We're not going to talk

114
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:01.480
<v Speaker 2>too much about it. We've talked about it all year long.

115
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:04.279
<v Speaker 2>Somebody like a nas Reed is out there in the

116
00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:07.360
<v Speaker 2>free agency market. But where does that leave Chris Paul?

117
00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:10.040
<v Speaker 2>Do we resign some of these guys? Do we get

118
00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:12.319
<v Speaker 2>rid of some of these guys? I think we have

119
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:15.160
<v Speaker 2>a good core. We're missing one piece, And like they've

120
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:18.439
<v Speaker 2>said so far, it depends on what happens in this draft.

121
00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:23.959
<v Speaker 2>If the Spurs can land a Connople or that kid

122
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:26.759
<v Speaker 2>out of Georgia. I think the Spurs are going to

123
00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:31.680
<v Speaker 2>be fine with a healthy team, even bringing back Chris Paul.

124
00:07:31.879 --> 00:07:34.160
<v Speaker 2>I believe we should bring back Chris Paul for another

125
00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:37.879
<v Speaker 2>two year run. He likes San Antonio. I think he's

126
00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:40.519
<v Speaker 2>great on the floor. He doesn't take up a lot

127
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:43.160
<v Speaker 2>of minutes twenty to twenty four, but when we need

128
00:07:43.240 --> 00:07:47.639
<v Speaker 2>him for more, he's there something to think about, Spurs fans,

129
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:51.360
<v Speaker 2>and we'll talk about in our future podcast coming up

130
00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:54.360
<v Speaker 2>here in the offseason. Yes, we'll be joining you, not weekly,

131
00:07:54.639 --> 00:07:59.000
<v Speaker 2>but probably bi weekly with these Spurs report here on

132
00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:02.720
<v Speaker 2>your favorite podcast platform, so make sure you stick around

133

00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:08.480
<v Speaker 2>the year and we will bring you news as it happens.

<v Speaker 3>seventh three.

159
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:48.480
<v Speaker 4>That's a new single game record for Wemby.

160
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:50.600
<v Speaker 2>Here's Victor a little step back the game.

161
00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:53.000

164
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:09.120
<v Speaker 3>a career high forty three.

165
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:11.200
<v Speaker 4>During this game has been twenty one.

166
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:14.320
<v Speaker 3>Victor Webanyama forty three points on a career night eight

167
00:10:14.440 --> 00:10:16.799
<v Speaker 3>threes made, got the ball stripped there for a second,

168
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:19.799
<v Speaker 3>got it back and puts it in forty five.

169
00:10:21.120 --> 00:10:23.720
<v Speaker 4>Jesse Brandow heard about George.

170
00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:30.399
<v Speaker 3>Guarded by Kisburg turn shoots and swisses for fifty.

171
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:33.240
<v Speaker 4>He's not human, He's an alien.

172
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:38.440
<v Speaker 2>That was the first nominee, Victor Wembanyama going for fifty

173
00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:43.240
<v Speaker 2>against Washington. Our next nominee goes to Steph Castle for

174
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:45.799
<v Speaker 2>his and yes, I put a little panache on that

175
00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:48.799
<v Speaker 2>right there, Steph Cassell. That's what I ended up doing.

176
00:10:49.000 --> 00:10:52.840
<v Speaker 2>Steph Castle with his new career high of thirty three

177
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:54.759
<v Speaker 2>against the Hornets.

178
00:10:56.039 --> 00:11:00.480
<v Speaker 4>Castle guys up an under the rookie.

179
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:03.879
<v Speaker 5>Flip it on the other side against the loon I

180
00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:09.480
<v Speaker 5>got a crack. Steph Castle making a difficult shot look easy.

181
00:11:10.679 --> 00:11:16.159
<v Speaker 3>Castle crossover, keeps the handle and scars it.

182
00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:18.559
<v Speaker 5>What lane he saw, I didn't see it.

183
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:20.919
<v Speaker 4>He's got a nice, nice handle.

184
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:24.399
<v Speaker 5>I mean he picks the most difficult route and still

185
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:27.080
<v Speaker 5>able to be two defenders to help the job by

186
00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:28.799
<v Speaker 5>them to sell just to the battle and the defensive

187
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:30.679
<v Speaker 5>last year, not gonn see the rebound.

188
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:33.960

225

<v Speaker 2>career high and three points make He had amazing stat

227
00:13:57.919 --> 00:14:01.519

228
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:04.360
<v Speaker 2>to accept the awards because our ceilings are a little

229
00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:07.120
<v Speaker 2>too little, so I will hand them to the award

230
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:10.159
<v Speaker 2>with a step layer later on when we meet next year.

231

<v Speaker 2>first nominee. Do you guys remember when Jeremy Sohan and

302
00:18:32.799 --> 00:18:38.079
<v Speaker 2>Julian Champenny would not take any ish from the Oklahoma

303
00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:38.720
<v Speaker 2>City Thunder.

304
00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:47.039
<v Speaker 9>Champenny fix it up, gives it a castle, finds a

305
00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:50.119
<v Speaker 9>cutting side with the hammer.

306
00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:53.599
<v Speaker 7>And now we had a scuffle at center court Kenrich

307
00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:59.039
<v Speaker 7>Williams and Juliet Sampenny and now don't mix it up

308
00:18:59.079 --> 00:18:59.799
<v Speaker 7>with so Hand.

309
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:11.799
<v Speaker 2>This was our first time that we saw the San

310
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:15.240
<v Speaker 2>Antonio Spurs really say hey, we're here to play. We're

311
00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:19.279
<v Speaker 2>not gonna be any pushovers. And Jeremy don't mess with

312
00:19:19.319 --> 00:19:24.519
<v Speaker 2>the Sohan destroyer really decided to step in and it

313
00:19:24.640 --> 00:19:27.759
<v Speaker 2>was pretty interesting him getting in loud Dort's head because

314
00:19:27.799 --> 00:19:31.559
<v Speaker 2>lou Dort ended up getting ejected, but Jeremy did not

315
00:19:31.880 --> 00:19:34.799
<v Speaker 2>in that one. That is our first nominee for Scuffle

316
00:19:34.839 --> 00:19:38.279
<v Speaker 2>of the Year, Champenny and so Hand versus the Oklahoma

317
00:19:38.400 --> 00:19:41.880
<v Speaker 2>City Thunder. Here's our second one. You may not remember.

318
00:19:42.200 --> 00:19:45.000
<v Speaker 2>It was the first week of the season. Dylan Brooks,

319
00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:49.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, we know that guy versus who Victor win

320
00:19:49.319 --> 00:19:50.519
<v Speaker 2>Benyama check it out?

321
00:19:50.559 --> 00:19:53.000
<v Speaker 3>Three well short a couple of those rustic threes that

322
00:19:53.079 --> 00:19:53.599
<v Speaker 3>worked that way.

323
00:19:53.640 --> 00:19:59.160
<v Speaker 4>They stopping a Town of the Webby Balls. Brooks is

324
00:19:59.200 --> 00:20:04.440
<v Speaker 4>there him, Brooks fighting for it. Watch out, watch out home,

325
00:20:06.559 --> 00:20:12.000
<v Speaker 4>Dylan Brooks an Wenby? You know that just done? Necessary?

326
00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:15.960
<v Speaker 4>Brooks in there pushing me. How many times did the

327
00:20:16.319 --> 00:20:17.759
<v Speaker 4>official have to blot the whistle?

328
00:20:18.160 --> 00:20:21.720
<v Speaker 2>Dylan Brooks versus Victor Wembin Yama Scuffle of the Year.

329
00:20:21.799 --> 00:20:24.680
<v Speaker 2>I remember this game because we were at that game

330
00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:27.039
<v Speaker 2>and it was one of the first times we actually

331
00:20:27.079 --> 00:20:30.599
<v Speaker 2>saw Wenby say I'm not giving up the ball. This

332
00:20:30.799 --> 00:20:34.160
<v Speaker 2>is mine. Kind of a vision of maybe what's to come.

333
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:37.279
<v Speaker 2>Do you think Spurs fans and our final nominee here

334
00:20:37.319 --> 00:20:40.799
<v Speaker 2>in Scuffle of the Year on the San Antonio Spurs

335
00:20:41.119 --> 00:20:45.079
<v Speaker 2>Annual Awards show with your boy Katie, you remember so

336
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:48.279
<v Speaker 2>hand the destroyer again. Something tells me he's going to

337
00:20:48.319 --> 00:20:51.559
<v Speaker 2>turn into our Dennis Rodman, I think so. Check it

338
00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:55.319
<v Speaker 2>out when he took on Jaden McDaniels of Minnesota.

339
00:20:55.799 --> 00:21:00.279
<v Speaker 9>Jeff Benny fires quickly, no good offensive rebound, Chris Paul

340
00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:06.480
<v Speaker 9>three two strong, and McDaniel's getting tied.

341
00:21:06.359 --> 00:21:09.000
<v Speaker 7>Up a stuffle for the second straight night.

342
00:21:10.240 --> 00:21:11.880
<v Speaker 9>No one's leaving the bench either.

343
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:15.440
<v Speaker 7>Way, and they'll settle this down.

344
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:19.880
<v Speaker 9>But McDaniels in Sohan getting heeded.

345
00:21:22.079 --> 00:21:27.319
<v Speaker 2>That is our third nominee for Scuffle of the Year.

346
00:21:27.519 --> 00:21:30.400
<v Speaker 2>Jeremy Sohan had a few of them this year, and

347
00:21:30.440 --> 00:21:32.920
<v Speaker 2>that's what I love about Jeremy. Let's give a big

348
00:21:32.960 --> 00:21:37.119
<v Speaker 2>shout out and applause to Jeremy so Hand. I think

349
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:40.880
<v Speaker 2>he's gonna be our enforcer and backbone. I really do.

350
00:21:40.960 --> 00:21:44.960
<v Speaker 2>He found his mark on this team. You know that

351
00:21:45.079 --> 00:21:47.720
<v Speaker 2>point guard position didn't work well for him, but guess what,

352
00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:50.319
<v Speaker 2>now he's another guy that can dribble the ball for

353
00:21:50.400 --> 00:21:53.160
<v Speaker 2>the Spurs. So Spurs fans, we have a good one

354
00:21:53.200 --> 00:21:56.799
<v Speaker 2>here in San Antonio with Jeremy. We were gonna also

355
00:21:57.079 --> 00:22:00.200
<v Speaker 2>give you a honorable mention when he also got in

356
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:04.599
<v Speaker 2>a scuffle in la as well. So Jeremy with three

357
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:07.880
<v Speaker 2>opportunities to get a Scuffle of the Year, I think

358
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:09.880
<v Speaker 2>he has a pretty good chance. And let's open it

359
00:22:09.960 --> 00:22:13.319
<v Speaker 2>up right here. Scuffle of the Year award goes to

360
00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:19.799
<v Speaker 2>Victor Winbinyama and Dylan Brooks. Not just because it's Wemby,

361
00:22:19.880 --> 00:22:22.680
<v Speaker 2>but this was a pivotal moment in Victor Wembinyama's career

362
00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:26.440
<v Speaker 2>since he's only been in the year, not even two years.

363
00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:29.240
<v Speaker 2>This was the start of the season during Week one

364
00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:31.799
<v Speaker 2>or two against the Rockets, and he wasn't going to

365
00:22:31.880 --> 00:22:35.160
<v Speaker 2>take no ish. He got on the floor, he balled

366
00:22:35.200 --> 00:22:37.599
<v Speaker 2>and balled out, and he wouldn't let go of the ball.

367
00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:39.920
<v Speaker 2>He was like a kid on the playground saying, uh uh,

368
00:22:40.200 --> 00:22:42.720
<v Speaker 2>I want you to know that I'm here, that I'm ready.

369
00:22:42.799 --> 00:22:44.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't care if Dylan Brooks is trying to take it,

370
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:47.519
<v Speaker 2>Jayden McDaniels is trying to take it, Lebron James is

371
00:22:47.559 --> 00:22:49.720
<v Speaker 2>going to try to take it. I'm holding this ball,

372
00:22:49.759 --> 00:22:54.640
<v Speaker 2>holding my ground. And the crowd went absolutely ballistic in

373
00:22:54.720 --> 00:22:58.759
<v Speaker 2>the Frost Bank Center. So congratulations to Victor Wembinyama. I

374
00:22:58.759 --> 00:23:01.920
<v Speaker 2>guess we can send you know, Dylan Brooks his but

375
00:23:02.039 --> 00:23:04.519
<v Speaker 2>let's just send him a garbage bag with junkin it.

376
00:23:04.640 --> 00:23:07.119
<v Speaker 2>Let's just do that. We can do that. This also

377
00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:10.440
<v Speaker 2>leads into our next award here, the take no Ish

378
00:23:10.480 --> 00:23:15.559
<v Speaker 2>Award going to either Victor Winbinyama, Jeremy's so hand, or

379
00:23:15.640 --> 00:23:18.720
<v Speaker 2>even caj killed in Johnson. When he gets in the

380
00:23:18.759 --> 00:23:20.799
<v Speaker 2>game and he gets those big plays in the middle

381
00:23:21.079 --> 00:23:23.599
<v Speaker 2>and drives to the basket. I love when he flexes

382
00:23:23.640 --> 00:23:26.480
<v Speaker 2>on him and looks at him and nobody messes with kJ.

383
00:23:26.920 --> 00:23:28.880
<v Speaker 2>I love it. The winner of the take no Ish

384
00:23:28.920 --> 00:23:32.559
<v Speaker 2>Award here on the San Antonio Spurst Annual Podcast goes

<v Speaker 2>to Wow Jeremy so hand he better pick up one

386
00:23:37.559 --> 00:23:41.400
<v Speaker 2>after having three scuffles this past year, right, I don't

387
00:23:41.400 --> 00:23:44.119
<v Speaker 2>even think he had a black eye as well. I

388
00:23:44.160 --> 00:23:47.200
<v Speaker 2>don't think. So let's move on to our next awards.

389
00:23:47.240 --> 00:23:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Only a few lined up here in the rest of

<v Speaker 2>uh Monogenobli this year for most points in a season

395

<v Speaker 2>off the bench, so congratulation to him kJ, sixth Man

396
00:24:15.799 --> 00:24:18.599

397
00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:21.599
<v Speaker 2>we're just gonna throw out to Devin Vassell. He had

398
00:24:21.640 --> 00:24:24.480
<v Speaker 2>one of the hottest shooting moments in the month of March,

399
00:24:24.559 --> 00:24:27.599
<v Speaker 2>and in San Antonio Spurs history, he had the most

400
00:24:27.640 --> 00:24:31.119
<v Speaker 2>three pointers made in a month by a Spur in

401
00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:34.839
<v Speaker 2>the organization in the month of March. So congratulations to

402
00:24:34.960 --> 00:24:43.519

00:24:43.559 --> 00:24:46.440
<v Speaker 2>not going to hit any trees what too soon. Sorry.

404
00:24:47.039 --> 00:24:49.480
<v Speaker 2>Rest in peace to my boy Paul Walker, who couldn't

405
00:24:49.480 --> 00:24:52.200
<v Speaker 2>be here tonight. I know we're being silly on this

406
00:24:52.279 --> 00:24:54.559
<v Speaker 2>award show, but that's what this is all about. It

407
00:24:54.680 --> 00:24:59.119
<v Speaker 2>makes us different from other San Antonio Spurs podcasts. That's right.

408
00:24:59.160 --> 00:25:00.680
<v Speaker 2>We had a little bit of human we're involved with

409
00:25:00.720 --> 00:25:02.799
<v Speaker 2>it too. It's like sitting down with you boy. We're

410
00:25:02.839 --> 00:25:05.559
<v Speaker 2>just rapping right talking about the Spurs and having a

411
00:25:05.599 --> 00:25:08.680
<v Speaker 2>little bit of fun. Let's move into our next award,

412
00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:12.160
<v Speaker 2>shall we. This is our Dirty Work Award. This is

413
00:25:12.200 --> 00:25:16.039
<v Speaker 2>a little bit different than the Take no Ish Award, right,

414
00:25:16.480 --> 00:25:19.079
<v Speaker 2>the dirty Work Award someone who's gonna go out there,

415
00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:23.400
<v Speaker 2>get you rebounds, assists, set those picks, get a few

416
00:25:23.440 --> 00:25:26.160
<v Speaker 2>points here and there. And there's quite a few Spurs

417
00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:30.599
<v Speaker 2>that are up for this. But right now, Mamukalavisich up

418
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:35.160
<v Speaker 2>for this award. kJ who just one our sixth Man

419
00:25:35.279 --> 00:25:39.680
<v Speaker 2>of the Year award. And how about Bizmack Biyambo in

420
00:25:39.720 --> 00:25:43.599
<v Speaker 2>this category. Biz Mack Biyambo played a great year as well,

421
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:47.319
<v Speaker 2>came in off the couch literally, so let's see if

422
00:25:47.319 --> 00:25:50.599
<v Speaker 2>he can steal this one. Away. The winner of the

423
00:25:50.640 --> 00:25:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Dirty Work Award goes to Biz mack Byambo. We've got

424
00:25:57.000 --> 00:25:59.839
<v Speaker 2>to give it to the Biz. Nobody beats the Biz.

425
00:26:00.359 --> 00:26:04.839
<v Speaker 2>Come on now, Biz coming off of his couch earlier

426
00:26:04.920 --> 00:26:09.680
<v Speaker 2>this season, the longtime vet here in the NBA fifteen years.

427
00:26:09.720 --> 00:26:12.279
<v Speaker 2>This is another guy. I hope the Spurs will resign

428
00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:15.240
<v Speaker 2>for another year or two. He'd be a great addition

429
00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:18.240
<v Speaker 2>to that second or third team, somebody that can come

430
00:26:18.279 --> 00:26:21.160
<v Speaker 2>in and give Wemby a little bit of time. Also

431
00:26:21.279 --> 00:26:24.480
<v Speaker 2>set those screens go for rebounds, and he has the

432
00:26:24.559 --> 00:26:27.319
<v Speaker 2>length in the middle for block shots. As we notice

433
00:26:27.359 --> 00:26:29.519
<v Speaker 2>when Victor Wembin Yhama goes out of the game, what

434
00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:33.559
<v Speaker 2>happens That middle's wide open and we get killed in

435
00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:39.240
<v Speaker 2>the paint. So congratulations to Biz mac Piambo picking up

436
00:26:39.319 --> 00:26:44.240
<v Speaker 2>this award as well. Only a few more awards left

437
00:26:44.279 --> 00:26:46.759
<v Speaker 2>here in the show. We've got to give a big

438
00:26:46.839 --> 00:26:51.200
<v Speaker 2>shout out to our van brand new award this year.

439
00:26:51.920 --> 00:26:54.160
<v Speaker 2>And I came up with it because some of the

440
00:26:54.200 --> 00:26:58.000
<v Speaker 2>people on this list here are missed here in San Antonio.

441
00:26:58.759 --> 00:27:03.319
<v Speaker 2>The hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday Award, that's right,

442
00:27:03.599 --> 00:27:06.759
<v Speaker 2>Our Boys to Men Award for you nineties babies out there.

443
00:27:07.880 --> 00:27:12.039
<v Speaker 2>The hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday Award some Spurs

444
00:27:12.079 --> 00:27:14.960
<v Speaker 2>that have come and gone or maybe just left the

445
00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:18.200
<v Speaker 2>season due to injury. Of course, on that list, the

446
00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:26.880
<v Speaker 2>number one contestant Victor Winbin Yama, Greg Popovich, Trey Jones,

447
00:27:28.640 --> 00:27:33.119
<v Speaker 2>and Zach Collins. This is a tough award here because

448
00:27:33.200 --> 00:27:37.079
<v Speaker 2>Popovich is the heart and soul of this team. But

451
00:27:43.559 --> 00:27:47.119
<v Speaker 2>Pop's not gone yet, Katie. We know neither's Wemby. We're

00:27:47.160 --> 00:27:50.680
<v Speaker 2>just saying, let's open it up and see here ooh by.

453
00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:57.240
<v Speaker 2>A very close contest Tray Jones. I've always loved Trey.

454
00:27:57.279 --> 00:28:00.279
<v Speaker 2>If you listened to the show last two years, you

455
00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:02.480
<v Speaker 2>know Trey was going to walk away with this award

456
00:28:02.599 --> 00:28:06.119
<v Speaker 2>very close. We had Pop of it circle, but in

457
00:28:06.200 --> 00:28:13.079

458
00:28:13.680 --> 00:28:17.640

459
00:28:17.680 --> 00:28:20.000
<v Speaker 2>great player for the Spurs. He's moved on to the

460
00:28:20.079 --> 00:28:22.880
<v Speaker 2>Chicago Bulls. He said some great moments with them this year.

461
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:25.680
<v Speaker 2>We wish him the best of luck here in San

462
00:28:25.680 --> 00:28:28.559
<v Speaker 2>Antonio and hey, it's not like we ain't ever seen

506
00:31:26.759 --> 00:31:29.680
<v Speaker 2>the year. This is not like the NBA where you've

507
00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:31.839
<v Speaker 2>got to get a certain number of games and to

508
00:31:31.880 --> 00:31:35.480
<v Speaker 2>win an award. Okay, Victor Wein Benyama led the league

509
00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:41.279
<v Speaker 2>in blocks all year. Through half the year, he was leading.

510
00:31:41.599 --> 00:31:43.920
<v Speaker 2>By the end of the year, he was leading. We

511
00:31:44.000 --> 00:31:46.599
<v Speaker 2>are going to give him the Defensive Player of the

512
00:31:46.680 --> 00:31:49.799
<v Speaker 2>Year award. Here on the San Antonios First Weekly Podcast

513
00:31:50.160 --> 00:31:54.359
<v Speaker 2>with KD and here it is ladies and drumm, drummles

514
00:31:54.440 --> 00:31:56.759
<v Speaker 2>because I was thinking drum roll right there. That's what

515
00:31:56.839 --> 00:31:59.359
<v Speaker 2>happens when this is a live award show. You don't

516
00:31:59.359 --> 00:32:02.240
<v Speaker 2>know what's going to happen. And all right, no broadcasting

517
00:32:02.279 --> 00:32:05.720
<v Speaker 2>and editing here, ladies and gentlemen. The moment you guys

518
00:32:05.759 --> 00:32:12.119
<v Speaker 2>have been waiting for Player of the Year. This seems

519
00:32:12.200 --> 00:32:17.039
<v Speaker 2>pretty unanimous, but when you hear the people in the category,

520
00:32:17.039 --> 00:32:20.200
<v Speaker 2>you might be like, hold up, wait a minute, I'm

521
00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:26.960
<v Speaker 2>not sure. Let's run through the Player of the Year awards.

522
00:32:27.640 --> 00:32:33.279
<v Speaker 2>Your first nominee, Chris Paul CP three, a man that

523
00:32:33.359 --> 00:32:37.400
<v Speaker 2>led this team to more wins and continuing his winning

524
00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:42.119
<v Speaker 2>ways no matter where he goes. Chris Paul, your first nominee,

525
00:32:43.160 --> 00:32:47.279
<v Speaker 2>Keldon Johnson Player of the Year Awards, someone that should

526
00:32:47.319 --> 00:32:50.200
<v Speaker 2>have won six Man of the Year if the dude

527
00:32:50.200 --> 00:32:52.839
<v Speaker 2>from the Celtics didn't have such a hot year. I

528
00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:56.480
<v Speaker 2>believe Kelden had a phenomenal year and is just getting

529
00:32:56.519 --> 00:33:00.640
<v Speaker 2>better and just getting started in his prime, and gentlemen

530
00:33:01.000 --> 00:33:04.920
<v Speaker 2>be ready for him to be a leader on this

531
00:33:05.039 --> 00:33:08.039
<v Speaker 2>team even further in the future and possibly Player of

532
00:33:08.079 --> 00:33:11.640
<v Speaker 2>the Year award winner here in San Antonio. Even though

533
00:33:11.640 --> 00:33:15.079
<v Speaker 2>this gentleman only played half the year. Victor Winbinyama led

534
00:33:15.119 --> 00:33:21.160
<v Speaker 2>the team in every major statistical category for individuals, points

535
00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:25.920
<v Speaker 2>per game, rebounds, blocks. He led in the major categories

536
00:33:26.920 --> 00:33:29.880
<v Speaker 2>in the limited time that he played twenty four points,

537
00:33:29.920 --> 00:33:34.359
<v Speaker 2>eleven rebounds, almost four blocks. And guess what we predicted

538
00:33:34.400 --> 00:33:38.599
<v Speaker 2>that we said he would average twenty four, twelve and four.

539
00:33:39.279 --> 00:33:42.759
<v Speaker 2>Pretty dang close. Let's give us a no Stradamis of

540
00:33:42.799 --> 00:33:47.279
<v Speaker 2>the Year award to me. I just know my boys, man,

541
00:33:47.319 --> 00:33:50.720
<v Speaker 2>I know my spurs Man and final in this category.

542
00:33:50.759 --> 00:33:54.880
<v Speaker 2>You've been waiting for him. Stefan Castle by far Rookie

543
00:33:54.920 --> 00:33:59.680
<v Speaker 2>of the Year fifteen points almost the game right around

544
00:33:59.720 --> 00:34:05.559
<v Speaker 2>that five assist clip. This man really was the guy

545
00:34:05.839 --> 00:34:09.639
<v Speaker 2>with CP three late in the season that got to

546
00:34:09.679 --> 00:34:13.400
<v Speaker 2>Spurs a lot of wins. This man was the heart

547
00:34:13.440 --> 00:34:15.840
<v Speaker 2>and soul of this team. I believe towards the end

548
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:18.480
<v Speaker 2>of the year, in a quiet heart and soul of

549
00:34:18.519 --> 00:34:22.559
<v Speaker 2>this team, he is up for Player of the Year

550
00:34:22.639 --> 00:34:25.559
<v Speaker 2>with CP three kJ N Wemby and the winner goes

551
00:34:25.599 --> 00:34:31.440
<v Speaker 2>to we knew it, Stefan Castle.

552
00:34:31.559 --> 00:34:35.559
<v Speaker 10>Stefan Castle cannot be here tonight, so we are going

553
00:34:35.639 --> 00:34:38.880
<v Speaker 10>to accept the award for him, sitting here right up

554
00:34:38.960 --> 00:34:41.639
<v Speaker 10>next to my Rudy Gaye DeRozan bobbleheads.

555
00:34:42.000 --> 00:34:43.599
<v Speaker 2>Now we're gonna put it in a better spot. Let's

556
00:34:43.599 --> 00:34:46.320
<v Speaker 2>put it between George Gervi and Victor wimbin Yama and

557
00:34:46.400 --> 00:34:50.960
<v Speaker 2>my Funko Pop. I think that'll work perfect for everybody.
