Spurs fans are going to say that I’m saying this because we lost to them which isn’t true.
That said. The San Antonio Spurs are a dirty basketball team.
It’s crazy to see.
The SGA discourse is tiring. The officiating discourse is exhausting. We’re literally watching one of the best playoff series I’ve ever seen in my life. Not being able to enjoy two kick-ass teams going head to head in a heavyweight fight is just lame!!
Why is no one talking about SGA’s all time playmaking this series? His points per possession while doubled shows how great he is at making the right reads
Jaylin Williams is one hell of a role player. Dude is so tough, hits 3s, makes smart passes. Has everything you want off the bench. Just a dawg. Not a guy that gets a ton of credit but I just think he's so good and worth giving some love to.
Scottie Barnes on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander:
"Shai don't really foul bait, yo. He's aggressive going to the basket so they call fouls for him. There's no reason to hate on his game"

STATS AFTER OKC WENT UP 3–1 VS GSW:
KD: 81 FGA (49 misses), 21 reb, 10 ast, 4 stl
Russ : 76 FGA (48 misses), 23 reb, 32 ast, 11 stl
Russ took less shots & still had more rebounds, assists & steals somehow he’s the one getting blamed for the collapse. YH OK🤣! @SoundbiteKing 🤝

Russell Westbrook is 37 years old. He plays for the 15 seed Kings. I just watched that man dive out of bounds and save 2 offensive rebounds in one possession, come flying in from the arc on a free throw to secure another rebound in OT. That is why he is my favorite basketball player ever. Shoutout Kings fans, y’all are awesome
