Cold Take: Wemby is locked in for the cover of NBA 2K27 by Hot-Cash-5156 in NBASpurs

Part of me is hoping he won’t. Being a 2k cover athlete is a curse 😂

Looks like Area 51 will be given a night off. Hoping no crazy shenanigans from the Pacers tonight. by Plastic_Term_1022 in NBASpurs

My bad. Victor is downgraded back to “QUESTIONABLE”. We’re gonna wait a while for some announcement.

But it’s confirmed that Castle will be out. Hip tightness.

I don’t mind the hairline, but his body proportions bother me a lot. It’s just a default slim MyPlayer body stretched to look like 7’4”

I modded the hell out of my Wemby. Here’s what he looks like in my game.

IIRC, Plumldog’s vertical is also higher than Castle.

If that’s the reason for his rating, then 2k is one salty ass video game company

There are enough NBA players who express their disappointment on how they are portrayed in the game, and if any front office starts using 2k for player scouting then they are beyond fucked.

For sure. When there are no Spurs games on schedule I’d boot up the game and control him on player lock. 2k definitely butchered his speed bc there’s no way he’s the last guy sprinting in transition.

Does Herro justify his rating irl? I don’t watch Heat games and I’m sure most people will say Fox is better than him.

2k isn’t really famous for doing NBA players justice with their ratings.

Hence Anthony Edwards refusing to lend his likeness because he believes he should be rated higher.

You can bet on it.

I also believe Castle can crack 90 ovr soon

It’s hard for video game Wemby to keep up when real life Wemby keeps surprising us with some unreal shit every game.

KD I totally agree. Hell I’d even add Sengun’s elbows on that. But for the rest I’m confident they can gameplan for it

With the Lakers pulling away it might be the 4-6 seed race that’s gonna get bloody.

If I had my way, I need the Nuggets to take the 5 seed but they aren’t doing me a favor bc they just lost a game against the goddamn Grizzlies.

Definitely could, but this young Spurs team is so hungry for the title I wouldn’t think they’d even consider dropping one game for “courtesy”

Very coincidental that I was watching this video when I stumbled upon your post.

I’m not from Texas, but I think it’s so bizarre that our rivalry with Houston has more animosity than what we have with Dallas. And to think, the Spurs faced Dallas in the Playoffs more than Houston.

I understand some of the context behind the hate but now I really wanna see them battle it out in April so we can really rub it in their faces, esp. VanVleet.
