We had a good game.

Victor Weminyama was back.

He played well, guys.

Scored 27 points, 17 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 block shots to lead the Spurs to a 126-97 home win over the Wolves in Game 5 last night.

At 22 years old, Wemby became the third youngest player in NBA history to post that stat line in a playoff game.

Goes Magic Johnson, who was 20, Luka Doncic, who was 21, and now Wemby at 22, putting up these monster numbers in the Spurs.

They never trailed in this game after taking the 7-5 lead early in the game, but it got tied.

The Wolves fought back, but then the Spurs just went on another massive run here.

This was a classic game of runs, and in the end, Spurs led by as many as 30 at one point.

So they take game five, and I think you've got to start with Wemby when you're talking about this one.

What a first stint this guy had.

How could you talk about anything else besides Wemby?

I saw him called Angry Vic.

I saw him called Upset Vic, and I saw Mitch Johnson called him Mature Vic.

Man.

So he got three nicknames because he came out and just absolutely dominated, set the tone from the beginning as if he had been itching to get back on the court since being ejected during game four.

16 points in those first six minutes, and it was like every basket felt like a better and better highlight.

and then maybe some of his best plays came later in the game, like when he's ball faking around Rudy Gobert, spinning the dude around, finding whoever for a bucket underneath, or he finds another pass to the corner around Gobert's back when Gobert was, oddly enough, the help defender on Wemby.

It was posted up, I think, on Ant there at the bottom, but he just did everything.

He completely dominated, and the story of this series has basically been that
