Alex Caruso, asked if the Spurs feel like a problem that needs to be solved: “There’s nothing that needs to be solved. We could’ve won the game tonight. You would’ve been asking them the same thing. I don’t think there’s this narrative that this is a bugaboo. We should’ve played better and won the game and been in the NBA Finals. They’re a good team, they’re young. (We’ll) both probably be around for a while. But we’ve gotta get better and try and win next time.”
Gilbert Arenas on SGA back to back MVPs:
“I know the narrative, I don’t know if it’s a OKC thing. I don’t know if y’all like players in OKC. But you’re doing the same thing a little bit to what you did with Westbrook. You’re pretending what he’s doing is so, it’s just consistent. THE ONE THING YOU WANT FROM A PLAYER, CONSISTENCY. Like a guy who can guarantee me 30 every night. What are you talking about? The one person I don’t have to worry about on my team. Meaning, if I look at him, no matter what he looks like, sad, too happy, what? 30. He’s guaranteeing me 30 every night.”

Remember that one time when OKC had the 12th pick and then this 👇 happened and then Chet didn’t work out for Houston and left his Orlando workout early cuz he only wanted OKC then OKC took him and J-Dub then they both made the ASG and then they won a ring together?
Good times
