“The MVP is actually on the Thunder and not the spurs”
“Oh no way the bald white dude was MVP instead of the 8 foot tall guy?”

They chose us. They didn’t have to choose us. They chose us.”
- Chris Finch

Jaden McDaniels belongs in the Trash Talk Hall of Fame. Not often someone backs it up like this.
