UConn in the Pros December 2025

[Scottzer]

All fairness to Cam, but Pat is the draw major draw in this. Going four years without playing competitive basketball and then making it to the NBA is just a wild story. I don’t know if it’s enough to draw at the movies but what a story.

You are correct - and really it’s two movies with Cam getting the sequel. Trying to intertwine two parallel plots would get clunky and feel forced. It could be a good couple of movie, but almost any director would have the scenes of self doubt that I don’t think ever actually creeps into the Spencer brothers.

No way Spurs trade Castle. I see Giannis going to a big market like Golden State or NY. That's what the league wants.

 

[Gurleyman]

There's nothing compelling about the Thompson twins story.

I always want to crack a "Hold Me Now" or "Lay Your Hands On Me” joke when someone writes something like this.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Twins drafted in the Top-5 is pretty cool…

Possibly my favorite Husky, but he is no where good enough to talk trash. Not yet, anyway.

Yeah but talking trash is his shtick.

The Golden State/Steph Curry stimulus package is something else because that dude thinking Pat is the better player between the two brothers is wild

 

[Mr. French]

I love this pod, it’s one of my favorites by far.

 

[Khal Drogo]

That’s an NBA body if I’ve ever seen one. 🤣 Just mess’n, love Cam!

Dad’s body in that picture. Lol

Jacoby is just saying that based on their “status” - he just means like Pat has started for a much better team and is older, etc. I wouldn’t take it to mean much he was just shocked how well Cam is shooting when he’s not even a starter on a good team, for instance.

 

[HW611]

I thought my rhetorical question spoke for itself. I saw other people responded and I didn't have anything to add.

I was going to do a timeline to breakdown the situation. But I actually came across Castle’s commitment video and it says it all.



Between this and then going into the NBA combine stating he explicitly wants to play PG, it says how he felt. He didn’t want to be in the situation he was in here again, even if it won a championship.

And we all clearly see why now with the success he’s having. He’s a monster at his natural position.

 

[superjohn]

That was entertaining but the one dude clearly just heard of Cam for the first time a couple days ago.

It is but the general public would have no interest. Oh cool, you guys are brothers/twins who were expected to make the NBA and you made the NBA. If someone was going to make a movie about twins do the Pouncey brothers. At least you would have some great casting and scenes for the Aaron Hernandez and Richie Incognito characters.

 

[Palatine]

This is what class and leadership look like.

[Mr. French]

Not as many blocks - bust!

 

[Inyatkin]

Risacher is young and it was a weak draft, but with the numbers he's putting up, he'd be getting a lot more heat if anyone had heard of him before draft day

No Cam last night?

Someone posted that Cam and Pat both didn't play yesterday and it did seem there was something going on with the family. So that makes sense.

How come he was out last night? Is he ok?

Injury report just says personal reasons. I think Pat is out also for personal reasons. Hope everything is OK for their family, but that's usually not great.

Thought Yang was holding a baby at first glance and Cling was giving him swaddling advice.

 

[UCFan1513]

Same reason there would never be interest in a movie about Dominique and Gerald Wilkins, the Morris twins, the Plumlee brothers. There's nothing compelling there. There's nothing compelling about the Thompson twins story. They were considered top 10 high school players and they made it, the story about brothers who were always supposed to go to the NBA and did.

Steph and Seth Curry there's something there because they didn't get scholarship offers to major colleges coming out of high school despite having an NBA father and one of them became one of the best players ever but it also makes it far less compelling because they're sons of a really good NBA player.

This shouldn't have to be explained to Huskywarrior but here we are.

But it’s exciting because they were coached by Kevin Ollie at a fake high school and you don’t get it because you hate him!!!

Thanks. There was a story about Pat and Cam playing pickleball and Cam told his teammate to attack Grandma’s left hand because she had a weak left hand.

There was one poster over the summer who was adamant they wanted to trade Castle. Who was that?

 

[Gurleyman]

Could be a stats watching night. Castle with 7-2-2 after 6 minutes and just looks dialed in and aggressive. But we’ll see.

 

[Gurleyman]

Harrison Barnes has missed 17 three pointers in a row, and I swear 15 of them must be off Steph passes.

Turns out it’s not much of a stats watching game since the Spurs are going 11 deep on the front end of a back to back (and after the Cup final Tuesday). In Atlanta tomorrow and then another one with Washington Sunday.

The Spurs had the game in hand pretty early. Steph ended with 17-7 with three TOs on 7-11 shooting and 1-5 from three. One of his TOs was a dump off to Kornet which was partially bobbled but probably a hair too low to be a perfect pass. Another was a lob to Wemby that Wemby actually somehow didn't catch properly. I personally thought it was more a Wemby issue than the pass. Didn't see the third (or rather first).

First one was just a really weird 1-in-a-million unforced one where he was trying to throw an uncontested pass near the sideline to set upthe offense early in the shot clock … and a second Spurs player ran into the passing lane. Ball ended up out of bounds.

a gag job in progress by the Blazers blowing a big 4th quarter lead and then DC misses 2 FTs in OT with the Blazers clinging to a 1 point lead. Don't even understand why DC is in the game in an obvious foul situation.

Blazers get bailed out by a last second foul(suspect call) on a desperate Avidja shot attempt and make 2 FTs to win, DC would have had to wear that one if they lost but Splitter still nuts for having him out there. DC with 19/8/4/2, his defense has been a bit iffy since coming back from injury.
