Just want to take the time to say THANK YOU to each and every one of y’all that contributed to our best year yet streaming on Spotify! Completely surreal to see some of these statistics. The love is felt immensely. Thank y’all again and we will see you soon!
@KingCantona14@SpursReporter@AdamSchein Of course they aren’t which makes this all the more exciting! I don’t give a fuck what OKC thinks. They might go out and get Giannis because the dude who they paid 200 million to stop Wemby is scared of him. Im not bothered. Ive seen 5 in my lifetime. This is just extra.
@KingCantona14@SpursReporter@AdamSchein I’m not sure you remember 2013? Probably the most devastating loss in finals history and people thought we would never get back. I know it looks like they just blew it, but realistically New York was the better team. Nothing wrong with that. They were battle tested
@KingCantona14@SpursReporter@AdamSchein We have. 5 times actually. You can argue that this isn’t even the most devastating loss we’ve experienced either. Good for NY. ~50 years is a long time
@thepapioppa@hankfrackett@JMcDonald_SAEN I don’t honestly care about “public perception” if social media was around during that era I would imagine we would’ve called for a lot of heads. You along with others have poor memory if you thought Shaq and Kobe weren’t arrogant, dirty, sore losers. It’s part of the game
@hankfrackett@thepapioppa@JMcDonald_SAEN He’s probably got a flare for the surreal as well because I feel like I’m in the twilight zone. Imagine these people watching Shaq. Probably would’ve wanted the DHS involved.
@2012_nugget_201@2live_mari@ironluvyakk@Bryce_Estelle So the expectations changed is what you’re saying? So they overachieved? That’s great. If you know anything about this matchup you would know it favored the Knicks. They have the perfect setup to beat a team like SA. Not to mention the experience. That was the difference maker
@Poisonimpulse@moorehn The whole article is just weird. Portraying Wemby as some kind of jock figure whenever he had to overcome the image of being “soft” “timid” etc. This is also the same dude that was playing chess in a New York park this past season with other fans.
@Jet_Fan_Georgia@SpursReporter Yeah I’m sure if Wemby made a punk out of someone at practice everyone would be acting normal and it’d be cool because we can just call them underachievers?. Revisionist history is insane bud. No one even expected Wemby at this stage this early. You’re getting washed by the hype
@Jet_Fan_Georgia@SpursReporter Yeah, let’s ask Smush Parker, Kwame Brown, Dwight Howard and Jeremy Lin. Dude is a legend yeah, but let’s not have this conversation bud. Not to mention. you’ve been covering basketball that long and you’re letting one playoff run dictate your feelings on a 22 yr old?
@2live_mari@ironluvyakk@2012_nugget_201@Bryce_Estelle Happens to everybody bud. I’m all for the criticism. But at the same time he also had the most points scored in a playoff run for a 22 year old. Dude did a lot of things right but came up short. Knicks were a great proven team who already went through trials and tribulations.
@2live_mari@ironluvyakk@2012_nugget_201@Bryce_Estelle He had bad stretches yeah? I remember Bron having the same vs the spurs in 2007 and especially in Dallas in 2011. If you’ve actually been watching basketball long enough you see these narrative media cycles repeat themselves with star players.
@idle_prattle@Jet_Fan_Georgia@SpursReporter Yup! Shit, if you actually kept up and read about/watches his early-mid years in his career you’d know exactly what I’m talking about. I’m convinced most of these people on this platform started watching basketball in 2016 or later
@wembygotme People truly don’t know what bad sportsmanship looks like. I remember Kobe and LeBron being hated at one point in their career and it wasn’t pretty at all. Recency bias has these people saying the stupidest shit. Nonetheless after their team won 4-1.
@ScionYT@lbf_mas The pistons in the 80s were back to back champs because of their physicality. Man not everything has to be a slight. Being so sensitive about a compliment from someone that learned English as his 2nd language is wild. The series is over. This comment was months ago. Get over it
@Jet_Fan_Georgia@SpursReporter You just started watching basketball not to long ago? Kobe had horrible sportsmanship. Especially when he was young. He was arrogant, horrible teammate, cocky, and sometimes egotistical.
@Hercamer@JoyceCarolOates My excuses are simply what you pointed out stupid ass. Y’all were calling for suspension the whole series. At the end of the day the spurs simply weren’t the better team. Doesn’t bother me the way it does for you. I can deal with rookie pains. This was all or nothing for NY
