Adam Silver certainly has a tendency to make remarkable announcements at this time of year, and 2026 is no exception. In fact, this year’s announcement is especially profound for Spurs fans because it directly and immediately affects the Silver and Black. The announcement also affects this season’s playoffs for all teams, and will continue to do so for years […]

San Antonio is now 25-2 since February 1st, with a good chunk of those wins being blowouts (or at least blowout-adjacent). This latter outcome has been especially common recently, as the Spurs’ schedule has been laden with hapless teams more interested in collecting ping pong balls than wins. The stereotype is that conditions like this […]
The first few minutes felt uneasy, like a storm quietly building. The San Antonio Spurs weren’t sharp out of the gate. The Chicago Bulls came in swinging, pushing the tempo and landing early blows that made the Frost Bank Center crowd shift in their seats. But then, as he so often does, Victor Wembanyama changed everything. It didn’t happen all at […]
In a first half characterized by alternating runs — somtimes back-to-back — from Chicago (29-46) and San Antonio (57-18), it was the Spurs that pulled away behind a 35-19 second quarter — specifically the dominance of superstar Victor Wembanyama and stellar guards — Stephon Castle and Dylan Harper. The Spurs held a 31-18 rebound edge […]

There are only two weeks left in the regular season. The playoff contenders are using the final stretch to jockey for position and secure home court, while the league’s bottom dwellers shut things down and look to improve their lottery odds. Monday night’s contest between the San Antonio Spurs and the Chicago Bulls will be […]
DeMar DeRozan recently passed Tim Duncan in the All-Time scoring list, and should pass Dominique Wilkins and Oscar Robertson this season, if he’s not shut down by the tanking Kings. It’s not surprising to see one of the best scorers of his generation potentially cracking the top 15 next season, but what makes DeRozan’s story […]
Coming off a blowout win against the Memphis Grizzlies, the Spurs traveled to Milwaukee to take on the Bucks for the final time this season.

Professional troll Skip Bayless weighed in on the debate regarding Bears quarterback Caleb Williams’ attempted trademark of the “Iceman” nickname on Friday, and it appears the young quarterback has something to say back. “I’m a Caleb Williams fan,” Bayless tweeted. “But I was a much bigger Iceman Gervin fan, and I’m offended Caleb and Co. […]

The Spurs dominated a lowly opponent from wire to wire, as a contender should. Despite not getting a particularly great offensive performance from Victor Wembanyama, they found scoring from all over the floor on their visit to Milwaukee and played aggressive defense en route to an easy 127-95 win, sweeping their three-game road trip. As […]

Usually, these Victor Wemanyama – Giannis Antetokounmpo match-ups have been must-watch TV, but with the latter out along with several more members of the Bucks’ main rotation, it was another methodical Spurs blowout win against a struggling opponent. Things were clicking offensively for everyone not named Wemby in this one, and they used a full […]
It’s quite possible we’ve seen the last of Kevin Porter Jr. in 2025–26. Prior to today’s game against the San Antonio Spurs, Bucks head coach Doc Rivers said that he would be “surprised” if KPJ played again this season. The news was initially reported by Eric Nehm of The Athletic. It’s been an injury-riddled season […]
When the Wizards played the Spurs in late December, Jamir Watkins spent a bunch of time guarding Victor Wembanyma. Wemby faces physical, dogged defenders who get up under him all the time. Watkins seemed to present a new challenge. The Wizards’ second round rookie mirrored Wemby’s lanky dribble and looked ready to rocket into the […]

The struggling Milwaukee Bucks face the white-hot San Antonio Spurs this afternoon at Fiserv, and there is potential for it to get really ugly, really fast; with Giannis already ruled out, Victor Wembanyama could run riot over the Bucks.

In strange-but-true news, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has filed to trademark the word “Iceman” for his merchandise line. If the name “Iceman” sounds familiar, it’s because San Antonio Spurs legend George Gervin has been using it for over half a century. The Hall of Fame baller has taken action by filing trademark requests for […]
