Victor Wembanyama on why things like money and fame doesn’t faze him:
“The reason why it doesn’t faze me is I know it’s just part of my path. It’s not the end goal.. But I have dreams, one of them is really big, but it’s personal.
That’s why there is nothing in the world that could lead me astray. That’s why all the trivial things like fame, money, everything mean nothing to me. It’s superficial..
Sure it’s nice to have and spend money. But the principle of money, if you get what I mean, is unhealthy.”

If Wemby would have won, all the talking heads would be saying "got that dawg in him. He's a new Kobe. Yadda Yadda." But since he lost it's "character problem. no humility. etc." Can't have it both ways. If you hate Wemby fine, I would too. But stop the disingenuous discourse.
This Wemby shit has gone too far. This is so much projection onto him because of one series and that third paragraph is just fantasy writing. He went to the NBA finals in his first playoff series, beating the defending champs, and he’s not mentally tough?
Dylan Harper says the Spurs gave that one away
"We're all definitely hurt, I mean, angry, but I mean, I feel like this is all fuel to the fire for us, and I think that we're just gonna go out play the game with a sense of fire in game five."
Actually not sure that I’ve ever been legitimately this heated over a Spurs loss before…
Kind of loss that makes you crash out and want to throw a controller through the screen…
Dear OKC,
We were blessed with the opportunity by @HEB to go to your city for game 7 and… wow.
Transparently, with all the responses we’ve gotten from OKC fans on here, we thought a lot of hate was waiting for us at Paycom but we couldn’t have been more wrong.
99% of your fans were so kind and welcoming, even congratulating each and every one of us after the win. The pregame chant battles were nothing but respectful and filled with friendly banter.
There is a common sentiment that you have some of the loudest fans in the NBA and that might just be true. Every single one of you on your feet the entire game, every single OKC fan in the shirt, and your use of the clappers is impeccable. An hour before tip and the arena was already full. We’re still biased towards San Antonio, but if we’re looking for a second place in crowd environment, you guys are up there.
We know that this will not be the last time we see OKC in a playoff run, I imagine it’ll be a fairly consistent thing, but after 12 games this season, your real fanbase definitely has our respect and we can’t help but tip our hat.
Thank you for being an amazing host to us, we hope all of your players get healthy, and can’t wait for the NBA’s newest big rivalry to continue.
P&L
