@MenInBlazers Balogun gets to play in the biggest game of his life and USMNT gets their best goal scorer for THE BIGGEST GAME OF THEIR LIVES!!!

How exactly are there no winners?

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@pointmadebball The context of the game makes these clips way worse. It was clockwork every time the Spurs had momentum, you could see OKC winding up for a grift. Additionally, the JWill and McCain grifts were what put OKC in the early bonus in that disgusting 2nd quarter. But it was all night.

@DirtyCommie99 @dacwardz @HoodiGarland You have to admit tonight was an utterly shameful look for OKC

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@JaredWeissNBA I get you don’t want to be biased. But, it’s pretty jarring when you just ignore what everyone is watching with their eyes.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@NateDuncanNBA @DonHarris4 Really hope Don responds to this. The way it’s worded and his typical reporting style makes me assume the foul and lead up WAS part of the ruling.

Could be a slippery slope, but glad it was considered here. Also a bit of an admission by the league their refs didn’t have control.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@NateDuncanNBA They’ve clearly tried with varying degrees of success (I.e. 2025 Pacers, Pistons). The strategy mostly works, except all of these high forced turnover teams also have the highest foul rates. With one exception, OKC.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@JaredWeissNBA Lazy analysis, we responded fine to the physicality. Thought we got to our spots better last night than in some of the Portland games. Did not like Wemby’s approach offensively to start the game and it trickled down to the team going iso heavy. But, Fox and Wemby were just cold.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@NateDuncanNBA I wonder if the refs ever think “damn he got me”

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@_JasonLT Kornet too. It’s inexplicable to me.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@RealTomPetrini I mean we don’t have any real PFs either so if we actually cared about that game at all, which we should have, why rest both our bigs?

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@JaredWeissNBA I really would like to understand the logic behind sitting both Kornet and Wemby. Obviously a lot to play out over the next month, but letting OKC get the winner of LAL and Houston instead of Denver feels like a mistake.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@MoDakhil_NBA @tomhaberstroh Do you have any insight into why teams prefer to DNP-Rest their stars instead of just playing them less minutes? Maybe playing 29-30 mins instead of 35-36 mins is just more sustainable in the pace and space era?

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@_JasonLT It’s been a winning formula all year. We get in trouble when it devolves into Wemby isos. Castle and Fox initiating offense and Wemby as a finisher is when we’re at our best. Fox is not within the top 5 concerns.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@NateSilver538 Been begging for a system like this! Did you consider the players being able to pick their team in the event of a tie? Would give some power to the top players with max bids, and promote teams having a well run organization.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@HPbasketball @C2_Cooper Well the fact they fined them $100k as a consequence suggests to me they were telling the team he should’ve been medicated and played in the game

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@andrewsharp 2&6 would do wonders for the game and are so simple to implement.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@KevinOConnor @nametakenffss Also, it’s just a really lame game to play 1/2 year into rookie season. So short sighted, and the reality is it’s more likely there’s a player drafted #3-60 that’s going to be better than #2 pick. Just a lame way to evaluate the draft by KOC, in order to prove his spurs takes.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@KevinOConnor @nametakenffss For Harper’s career idk how you can think you’re spot on for thinking he’d be better off somewhere else. He’s going to get to play with Wemby for the next decade+. He’s also the ideal fit for Wemby and has shown some insane flashes. So, Spurs def wouldn’t change a thing.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@NateDuncanNBA @DannyLeroux What if we’re talking about the wrong Bucks PF for the Spurs? Bobby Portis I think would be an ideal fit. As long as we keep the 3 guards and want to maintain roster depth the PF position can’t be a large salary. Bobby P brings spacing, size, and Wemby bodyguard.

[Tyler Nance @tylernance1]

@Sam_Vecenie Caruso acquired by trading Giddey who was the result of a 22 win season. We don’t need to act like they didn’t tank, just because they also had the best trade in nba history.
