Mitch Johnson on Friday: "De'Aaron Fox will have the basketball in his hands at the end of the game tomorrow."
De'Aaron Fox in 4th quarter Saturday in Game 5:
10 minutes, 0-4 FG, 1 foul, -5 on the court.
No impact, and a decision that cost the Spurs yet another Finals game.
Mitch Johnson really preferred to lose a championship than bench an ineffective player.
Never seen anything like that in my entire life, and I hope I never see it again.
Stephon Castle is 0-7 with 2 TO and all everyone can talk about is how horrible De'Aaron Fox has been, which tells you how horrible De'Aaron Fox has been.

I have never, in my life, seen a series-long choke like what the Spurs just did. They broke down in almost every big moment. Pretty much the entire team was visibly petrified in the clutch. Chalk it up to youth or inexperience but that was an insane thing to witness.
Wemby spent 3 series getting ABUSED by teams. Teams play him physically teams do lil dirty things to him 24/7 and its all been “apart of the game” but EVERY TIME Wemby does it back or shows he not with that BS yall sit him and try to paint him as French draymond 😂
Yeah it’s a missed call, a flagrant 1 and all that. But every Wemby incident from the Naz elbow, to the Dort shove, to this has been Wemby letting opponents know if you try to play him too physically you might get hit with the Shaolin fists of fury and I honestly gotta respect it
Stephon Castle is 21 years old. He just iced a must-win finals game on the road with a huge 3 with no time left on the shot clock, and followed that up by nailing both free throws to put the game out of reach.
