Draymond, Butler, Porzygis, Horford. Too many old and injured guys.

They were lying to themselves thinking that a team full of old guys was any threat to make serious playoff noise.

Yeah, if winning was their only goal, they would've blown up the core a few years ago and started fresh. I guess Steph Curry (and Draymond, to a far lesser extent) have earned the right to call the shots.

Almost impossible to blend the "two timelines", but if Wiseman and Kominga had worked out, maybe they coulda done it.

Well, no team is telling Steph Curry to go away until and unless he wants to. That guy is a Bay Area icon. Sucks that they blew those high draft picks they lucked into - means it's gonna take that much longer to build another good team and with the NBA, you really have to hit on having one of the 2-4 best players in the league or your team really just isn't a threat (with the exception of that one Pistons team that beat the old super-old team that almost pulled off a championship).

Resurrection on account of Victor Wembanyama who delivered one of the best basketball performances in the history of the sport. This series, SA vs OKC, is must see.

Agreed 100%

And so is Stephon Castle's Dunk of the Year last night.
Unbelievable!

You do know that Stephon Castle's team lost last night, right?

I'd be afraid to step off a ledge that was as high as he jumped

I hate these MF's who jump so high. They make me look bad.

Question: Those five players were born in five different countries. Can you name them?

Ha!
I almost couldn't, until I realized the obvious with Cade.

Game 7 Saturday night. The Knicks may be a beneficiary of this prolonged war of attrition. By that I mean they may last 5 games.

Funny how SGA only had single digit free throws last night and was held to 15 points total….

Up by as much as 14, Spurs head into halftime with a 4 point lead.



Castle 12 ........... SGA 19
Wemby 10 .......... McCain 10
Fox 10 .......... Williams 6

It makes me laugh when a team has a good lead and instead of taking advantage of the luxury of being able to take good shots, they opt for 3 pointers 2+ feet past the arc. A missed poor shot is no different than a TO from getting the ball stripped.

Wemby isn't old enough or tough enough to say, "There is no way you beat me." 3 boards by him explains a lot. Thunder current board edge is important.

I don't watch NBA and have only seen a small part of this game. My analysis will get better in NBA Finals.

To your point, OKC out-rebounding the Spurs 39 to 22.

SGA has to win this himself. He has no help. Holmgren has totally disappeared.

Holmgren has 4 points.
Big disappointment.

He got faced on national tv and will never be the same.

Chet Holmgren is signed to a five-year, $239.25 million fully guaranteed rookie max extension with the Oklahoma City Thunder. The contract kicks in for the 2026-27 season and runs through the 2030-31 season, with an average annual salary of $47.85 million.

They could package the #12 pick and holmgren for an upgrade.

Chet Holmgren… this article also ponders trading him if he is going to be so useless vs Wemby.
