Interested to see how the public viewpoint shifts on this Spurs team next series, because there’s some real insane stuff they got away with that a lot just brushed off because of who they’re playing
Put a pin in this
In the last 3 weeks Wemby has:
- Intentionally elbowed Naz Reid in the neck
- Called for bench players to try to hurt Thunder players with hard fouls after losing
- Skipped mandatory postgame media
- Yanked Lu Dort’s hair (the exact play Spurs fans wanted IHart arrested for)
All with no additional punishment from the NBA, Wemby being donned as the face of “ethical basketball,” and the narrative from the series being the Thunder whistle and Shai falling in a series they’re shooting less FT with both sides playing physically.
We’re witnessing the biggest mass gaslighting event the sport has ever seen.
I love game 5 especially when it’s 2-2. Win it and we don’t have elimination pressure, lose it and we give up home court and have elimination pressure and must win in San Antonio to keep the season alive.
Game 5s really show who’s made for these type of moments. If there is no Jdub or Ajay Mitchell, this game 5 will really prove who deserves to be on this team long term. If Chet, Dort, Jwill, Cason, Joe, IHart all don’t show up it’ll prove to me if they are a man or a mouse and built for these moments, and if we should maybe reevaluate their futures or how they are paid.
And for you 2 you haven’t had the series we all thought you’d have but we know in the biggest moments you always shine, when up against adversity you prevail and put everyone on your back and pull through. Some of my favorite moments of you came in game 5s. Against the nuggets in game 5 with the series tied when 2-2 and you had 31 6 7 and 4 stocks on 60 ts with 10 4th quarter points to give us the win. Or against the Pacers in Game 5 with the series tied 2-2 with Jdub and you going off to put us up 3-2. I know you have something in store for us in Game 5 against the Spurs.
Win or lose it’s still #ThunderUp until I die.
@sharpestsharp_ And its certainly ignored 😂 To be honest, I dont care about this stuff overall because its in every sport but ignoring it for a narrative is crazy work
Todo futbolero de verdad recordará ese video viral del Manchester City, en el que Pep Guardiola sorprende a Braydon, un hincha de 7 años del club, en un taxi. Eso fue en 2016, justo cuando Pep acababa de asumir como DT.
Braydon se sorprende al ver a Pep y le dice: "Contigo, vamos a ganar todos los títulos". Pep le responde:"Vamos a intentarlo".
Braydon tiene hoy 17 años, trabaja como periodista y hoy estuvo en la despedida de Pep, con el que se sacó esta selfie para cerrar el ciclo. Primero y último día.
Y Braydon tenía razón. Con Pep, el City terminó ganando todos los títulos. Fulbo🩵
@49ers passed up on this dude to take the 15th ranked RB as the 3rd RB off the board when, in the JL era, they have drafted nothing but busts at RB in the 3rd rd and every UDFA RB they've signed has been better. PROTECT PURDY!!!! Or do you even have EYES or a MEMORY John Lynch?!?
