Pop and his Spurs

From young champs to grown legends — this hits right in the feels. A true basketball family. #NBA #Spurs #BasketballFamily #NBAHistory #Sports #Dynasty

Yao Ming at his peak was 7'6", 310 lbs, unstoppable on the block, and one of the most skilled post scorers ever. Victor Wembanyama is a 7'4" unicorn with guard mobility, absurd length, and elite defensive instincts. So would a healthy prime Yao’s size, footwork, and power give Wemby serious problems? #NBA #Wemby #YaoMing #Spurs #Rockets #NBATalk #Basketball #BigMen

TIL Tim never won DPOY…

Tim Duncan was named to an incredible 15 All-Defensive Teams during his career — 8× First Team and 7× Second Team, but never won a single DPOY award. Among players who’ve never won DPOY, Duncan holds the most All-Defensive selections ever. Duncan – 15 Kobe Bryant – 12 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar – 11 Scottie Pippen – 10 For nearly two decades, Duncan was the foundation of the Spurs dynasty, the undisputed defensive anchor of San Antonio. His consistency and impact speak louder than any trophy could. #TimDuncan #NBAHistory #DPOY #Spurs #Defense #NBA

Is David Robinson one of the most underrated players in NBA history?

2× NBA Champion, 1× MVP, 1× DPOY, 10× All-Star, 10× All-NBA, 8× All-Defense, and even a scoring title — yet he’s rarely brought up in all-time discussions. Despite being one of the most complete two-way bigs ever, Robinson often gets overshadowed by guys like Hakeem, Shaq, and Duncan. Is his all time legacy underrated? #NBA #DavidRobinson #Spurs #NBADebate #BasketballHistory #GOATDebate #Sports

Wemby is STILL growing 😳

The Spurs have officially listed Victor Wembanyama at 7'5", a 2-inch increase from his original 7'3". This man is literally evolving mid-career. #NBA #Wemby #Spurs #NBATwitter #Unicorn #Sports

Manu Ginobili’s Underrated Playoff Greatness

From 2005 to 2011 playoffs, Manu averaged 19 PPG, 5 REB, 4 AST on 60% TS, including a 2005 run where he dropped 25+ seven times and helped lead the Spurs to the title. What do you think: is Manu a Top 10 shooting guard of all time? #ManuGinobili #Spurs #NBAPlayoffs #NBALegends #NBAHistory #Sports #NBA

What If Kawhi Never Got Hurt vs the Warriors in 2017?

Game 1 of the 2017 West Finals — the Spurs led 78–55 when Kawhi Leonard went down with an ankle injury after Zaza Pachulia’s closeout. Golden State came back, won the game, and went on to sweep the series, finishing the playoffs with a historic 16–1 record. But what if Kawhi stayed healthy? Could the Spurs have stolen Game 1 — and maybe more? Even if they didn’t win the series, they might have been the team to prevent Golden State’s legendary 16–1 playoff run. Do you think the Spurs could’ve pulled it off, or were the Warriors just too loaded? #KawhiLeonard #Warriors #Spurs #NBAWhatIf #NBAPlayoffs #NBADebate #ZazaEffects #NBAHistory #Sports

Manu Ginóbili: The Superstar in Plain Sight

Manu never chased numbers. He never averaged 20 a game, only made two All-Star teams, and came off the bench for much of his career. But anyone who watched the Spurs knows — he was the engine of their dynasty. From 2005–07, Ginóbili played at a true superstar level: efficient scoring, relentless defense, elite playmaking, and the kind of adaptability every contender dreams of. Gregg Popovich said it best: “Without Manu, there were no championships.” He didn’t need gaudy stats to tilt games. Manu was a scalable superstar — and one of the most portable winning players the NBA has ever seen. #NBA #ManuGinobili #Spurs #NBAHistory #NBAGreats #FIBA #BasketballTalk

What Finals felt the most evenly matched to you?

My pick: the 2005 NBA Finals — Detroit Pistons vs San Antonio Spurs. Two elite defensive teams. Two championship cores at their peak. Every possession felt like a chess match — it went the full 7 games, and neither side gave an inch. What’s your pick for the most evenly matched Finals ever? 🏆 #NBAFinals #Spurs #Pistons #NBAHistory #BasketballDebate #Sports #NBA
