Reporter: How do you define ceasefire?

Trump: “I'd say in that part of the world, ceasefire is when you're shooting in a more moderate manner.”

Huh?

Yikes: New Patriots wide receiver AJ Brown admitted to leaking stories about the Eagles to the media to "motivate" the team.

"It was done purposely to give us a push. It gives everything legs to push everyone to be better. I feel like it was okay to do."

Robert Horry on Wemby:

“I’m not saying he’s not great, he’s a great defensive player, but they trying to make him the be all now. Like he is God’s gift to basketball… Give him time. Let him mature… Don’t give it to him. Let him take it.”

Stephon Castle on suggestions that the Spurs are not floppers and if they are leaving gamesmanship on the table:

"I don't really know to answer that, because I sell calls too, I can't lie."

Hopefully Victor Wembanyama knows that if he loses in the Finals at 22 years old, he will no longer be eligible to ever be considered better than Michael Jordan.

Wemby will be the best player in the LEAGUE next season I don’t think it will be debatable at the midway point next year

we really got Spurs-Thunder in the WCF and it went 7. as hoops fans, from an objective standpoint, this was the dream, right? we had an absolute classic G1, and it's been a back-and-forth, ultra-physical chess match ever since. and here we are: Wemby and his squad vs. Shai and the defending champs on a Saturday night playing for everything. it really doesn't get any better.

shoutout to everyone who had a hand in taking the shine off this series, forcing the focus to what it's been the last week-plus. the big aggregator accounts. the engagement farmers. the twitter algorithm. so much of the national media. that gambling company. the guy who compiled that original viral video of Shai falling five times in one game. and of course Fall% Tom, for his groundbreaking work in bringing to life what will surely prove a revolutionary basketball metric.

congrats on the engagement, y'all!

in all seriousness, though, I rest assured in knowing the real ones have enjoyed this. and I sincerely hope everyone can enjoy the game tonight. these don't come around very often!

David Stern would have not only Basketball Reasons’d the Jared McCain trade, he would’ve fined Philly for even trying it.

[Real App @realapp]

Victor Wembanyama now has the most points by a center in their first playoff run in NBA history.

[Rob Perez @WorldWideWob]

Buddy, this Game 7 is going to hit like GS/OKC in 2016. Defending champs taken to the limit after a historical season. Biggest threat to the brewing dynasty trying to turn their own potential into reality. Wemby switching sides if they lose. Wait how did that get in there.
