So in other words the Thunder are the much better team. Glad we agree


Def would not say “much better.” The Spurs beat the Thunder 4-1 in the regular season for a reason.

If Wemby plays at his highest super human level, the Spurs are better. He can dominate a game on both ends better than any Thunder player. But if it’s both teams base level, the Thunder are better. So I’d say Thunder are generally better but Spurs have a higher peak level of basketball given the Wemby factor. It’s just whether they can get that for 2 games.

SGA spending a lot of his media availability praising his teammates. He says tonight was one of the worst starts he's ever had.

"If it was 4 or 5 me's out there, we would've been down 20 after the 1st quarter."

SGA on Alex Caruso:

"He has the most championships on this team. He's played in the most big games on this team.

AC... he's one of if not the best competitor in the NBA night in and night out...

He's huge for us."

SGA on Chet Holmgren:

“He was really good. Chet has all the tools and everybody in our building and the league knows that.

He’s a hell of a player.

I don’t ever worry about Chet.

I’ll bet on Chet 10 times out of 10.”

——

This series goes to show reg season means nothing. SA was 4-1 vs OKC and trail 3-2 but without miracle 3 game 1 its 4-1. They are good and I fully expect them to win game 6. Then anyone can win. But some thought based on reg season they’d roll thru Thunder. They will be around for a long time. When you get in a series coaches have time to actually game plan which isn’t as much in one game reg season sets.

They seem to think it’s a narrative that caught on through clips and social media when the opposite is true

I was beating this drum well before it was cool


So you’ve been wrong for longer than anyone else. Congrats I guess. OKC is in the bottom half of the league in free throw differential. The OKC whistle doesn’t exist.

Also we are the bad boyz of the NBA and we got a ring so frick all y’all and frick your team. Next time don’t bring piss to a shite fight.

But no worries, they would have shot 68 to 85 free throws.

I’m trying to figure out why they didn’t review the out of bounds call.


Coach needs to call timeout first before calling for a challenge and he never did.

He talks big when he wins but pussies out when they lose. Has a lot to learn about playoffs. He claimed he played ethical basketball but now pouts and runs away

Your entire team plays softer than the WNBA. The women can take more contact than yall do. And you are talking about pussies. It is not even clever; the refs are just too incompetent to figure it out. I’ve watched basketball for forty years and I have never seen a brand of basketball that is less enjoyable to watch for having as much talent as they do. NBG is the face of this league and that is why for me modern NBA is borderline unwatchable. Soft as his Siberian neck brace fur coat for the whiplash for all his flopping.

Not sure Wemby has to be super human but he can't finish with 6 rebounds while Holmgren and Hartenstein are both 10+
