@robruss0 Step 1. Appeal NCAA decision to an in-state court.
Step 2. Wait until the decision is reveresed and revel in your success.
That’s all it is.

@Zwxsh Dude blew a 2-0 lead. That’s his fault.

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@FakeAccount69_4 @hawksucklol Yeah. There’s another that has the screen to format it, but their 70mm broke and they use digital. Still, I saw the Prologue there, it damn near the same format as IMAX 70mm.

@geoffkeighley Fandago had the tickets out early so I got em😁

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@hightopsport Toney is different. Just being honest.

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@caleb_t_jones__ @405Fan Have him. Don’t complain when he gets 0 rebounds in 30 minutes in a playoff game.

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@OrlMagicfan5 In fairness to him, he can get the injury excuse because even with a coach that they didn’t have faith in anymore, they were going to win the series had franz not gotten hurt. And I think they would’ve beaten Cleveland. It’s time to see if it was the coach or the players.

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@SeminoleKJ I have to admit, this was so predictable, as this entire season was.

@KevinOConnor Someone finally gets it

[Kevin O'Connor @KevinOConnor]

It's not an overreaction to question Chet Holmgren's fit in OKC. He straight-up can't defend Wemby, and he was terrified on offense. Bobbled passes. Tripped over his own feet. Even if Wemby wasn't lurking, he looked incapable of scoring against other San Antonio defenders. It was illuminating how bad he was.

But it's also not the first time. Chet was also terrible offensively against Indiana in last year's NBA Finals. He's now 30% from 3 in 48 career playoff games. He's shown no signs of being a shot creator. And his shooting and finishing isn't even translating to the playoffs. Now his max contract is about to kick in. It is completely reasonable to question whether Chet should be part of that plan.

I don't think the answer is a definitive no, to be clear. Chet was voted second in DPOY for a reason. He's an excellent, versatile defender. He still made some competitive plays for the Thunder on that end throughout the series for OKC. And he's still only 24 so there's room for growth on offense. But the Spurs are OKC's main rival and Victor Wembanyama is the player they'll have to get through to win a second title. If Chet can't defend Wemby and can't produce on the other end of the floor, the Oklahoma City front office should at least debate Chet's future.

@ThunderChats You all really think chet is that guy my god😭

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@pissedtons @NCSMuldoon If that FO ever drafted Chet I would’ve lost it. He is a temu version of mobley who can’t create his own shot. He made all-nba because of his defense. It wasn’t because of his offensive production.

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@pissedtons @NCSMuldoon Then how come there are three straight postseason where he’s getting locked down by INFERIOR PLAYERS?

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@stonecodykilla @adamwehib @JonesOnTheNBA It’s either pass out of a double team to a non shooter or take a tough shot because he doesn’t trust anyone outside of Franz

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@Fiizop Paolo is a better playmaker and a better rebounder when he has the opportunity to do so. Y’all have seen it in the playoffs. I can’t wait for Sweeney to actually unlock him yall will see.

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@stonecodykilla @adamwehib @JonesOnTheNBA Get him some spacing and he stops taking those shots. All of this proves y’all have no idea how bad that offensive system was.

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@PlayersChoice_ It never was

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@SamQuinnCBS Why the hell would the Magic trade for a worse player? Also, the notion that Paolo and Franz don’t fit is stupid as hell. They do, but only when they’re healthy and they have spacing (which is every 2-way forward duo).

[Real App @realapp]

SGA in the Conference Finals:

25.9 PPG
40.9% FG
28.6% 3PT

That’s the lowest FG% by an MVP in a WCF series since 1956.

[Nico Gompel @nicolasgompel]

@WestMagnaCarta @TheDunkCentral @realapp Bro no. People been saying Chet should’ve gone #1 ahead of Paolo. Which, to me, is utter nonsense. I’m speakimg on that.
