Last night was also coincidentally my sixteenth wedding anniversary, so naturally my wife was at the Benson Boone concert…with my daughter…while I attended my daughter’s middle school volleyball parent […]
Victor Wembanyama’s fantastic year continues in the NBA offseason. The Spurs big man became the youngest captain of France’s national team in 23 years, the French Basketball Federation announced. While the title might not seem like a big deal, especially in a non-Olympic year, it’s definitely important for the superstar center. Wembanyama recently said in […]
I moved to San Antonio (technically back to San Antonio) from New York in the summer 2013. The Spurs had just been upset in the Finals. I immediately plunged into my fandom and embraced the team I grew up adoring. Somewhere over the next couple of years, the Spurs beat the Portland Trail Blazers. When […]
Welcome to Pounding the Rock’s 2025-26 player reviews!

It’s August, free agency is all but done, the schedule has been released, and therefore we are in the official doldrums of the NBA offseason. At Pounding the Rock, we often like to find fun projects or series to do to pass the time. We’ve especially enjoyed bracket-style tournaments over the years that have included […]
Over the past few weeks, San Antonio Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones has been publicly calling to include a vote on the November ballot concerning the city’s $489 million financial contribution toward the new downtown arena.

Long time fans of the San Antonio Spurs know that David Robinson has a gift for music. Back in 1989, he sang backup along with Sean Elliott, Willie Anderson, and Johnny Moore on Terry Cumming’s “It’s That Christmas Time of Year.” As local music legend Joe Reyes recalled, Robinson adeptly played the keyboard while in […]
On Saturday, Devin Vassell hosted a pair of basketball camps at Wagner High School, a morning session for elementary and middle school aged players and an afternoon for the high schoolers. During his morning session, a camper asked Vassell who his “least favorite player on OKC” was. Before the Florida native could respond, the campers […]
