Watching OKC vs Spurs game 7 made me realize one thing:
I’ve seen Wemby try to flop for more contact than I’ve seen the entire OKC team.
But we don’t usually hear about do we? 🤔
A group of superfans called the Spurs Jackals have arrived at Paycom Center, and some Thunder drummers are following them around to drown out their chants
Gameday. This shirt you will wear. This chair you will not use. It is Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals.
For only the second time in NBA history, both teams facing each other in a Game 7 have at least 62 wins. This heavyweight series has reached its final chapter. And though only the players get to touch the basketball, our fans in the arena tonight in downtown OKC will help determine the outcome.
In the playoffs this year and last, the Thunder are 17-3 at home and 10-7 on the road. At home or on the road, it’s the same players, the same coaches, the same basketballs, but the results are quite different. The difference is you.
Tonight, if you’re in the arena, you will give it everything you have for 48 minutes. By the end, you should be as exhausted as the players. You must always remember that it is a privilege and an obligation to be in that arena tonight. You are not a mere spectator. You are carrying the cheers and the hopes of millions of Thunder fans watching on TV across Oklahoma City and the world. You are there tonight to claim sports immortality on behalf of Thunder fans everywhere.
To the fans in the arena tonight - Arrive early. No sitting except in timeouts. Get back for the start of the third quarter. Give it everything you’ve got for all 48.
To the fans in their living rooms or bars and watching across Oklahoma City and the world - We can hear you, too. We’re all In this together.
It’s Game 7. Thunder Up.
Bob Myers, the four-time NBA championship architect of the dynasty Golden State Warriors who now serves as president of sports for Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment, led the search that lands Gansey as the 76ers' new President.
Myers will work closely in partnering with Gansey and assist in his vision for the organization.
Gansey has served as the GM under Cleveland President Koby Altman since 2022, helping build the team into a contender in the Eastern Conference.
Did the Spurs put Plumlee in to take a cheap shot at McCain, the newly minted starter? Does this change your worst franchise in all of sports rankings @clubtrillion?
How have I not seen this clip until just now?
This was an intentional and reckless play that might have potentially spoiled the Thunders entire season…
