OKC was an incredible champion and easily could’ve repeated if JDub was healthy and Victor Wembanyama didn’t turn into an Avenger this year. The Thunder will be back. And there will lots of Avengers movies.
One of two cliches will disintegrate in this year's NBA Finals:
Either the Spurs win, and people will no longer be able to claim you have to lose before you can win.

The footage somehow makes him even more likable.
From a cold email to GM of the Dallas Mavericks. What a rise! Mike earned this through relentless work and an incredible basketball mind. And he's an even better friend than he is a talent evaluator. Couldn't be prouder of you, brother.
AMAZING RAPTORS DEFENSE
First the pressure to nearly force another 8-second violation…and then Collin Murray-Boyles with the hands to knock the ball away from Evan Mobley. Incredible!
