Last basketball tweet for a bit, BUT this sums up how I feel, too. Not even a better on paper regarding stats of 82 games. A head on 3v3 is where I modify this statement and where it truly counts
It’s not just that the Thunder lost this series. It’s the fact that unless they make some brave decisions with their big 3, no version of Shai, J-Dub and Chet are going or be better than Wemby, Castle and Harper moving forward. This was the one they were supposed to get before the Spurs were ready.
But honestly? If I'm OKC, I leave this team and run it back. You are extraordinarily deep. Why run and fix something when you have no clue what happens. I don't see Sam doing much other than moving up in draft unless Ainge or Riley does not ask you to gut your assets
I'm sure they HAVE to make a call about Markannen. Ainge is gonna ask for the house or hang up on you, but you gotta make that call if you're OKC. I've seen a lot of people say Giannis or AD, and neither make sense to me tbh
The Thunder are not expected to show interest in Giannis Antetokounmpo, but they have shown interest in Evan Mobley, per @sam_amick
“League sources have long maintained that Oklahoma City would not take part in the Giannis Antetokounmpo sweepstakes that will dominate the summertime conversation, but this sort of stunning finish is enough to re-spark that conversation. Nothing should be off the table when the end goal wasn’t reached. There has long been chatter about the Thunder having interest in Cleveland big man Evan Mobley as well, but Cavaliers general manager Koby Altman insisted in an end-of-season news conference that Mobley wasn’t going anywhere.”

Say what you will, I think the real rivalry for Wemby, specifically, is with Flagg. It's Dallas's responsibility to build something around him. Flagg vs Wemby will feed generations if Dallas can build back

California Gov. Newsom declares a state of emergency in Orange County as a failing chemical tank threatens a potentially catastrophic explosion.
More than 40,000 residents have been evacuated as emergency crews race to cool the overheating tank at a Southern California aerospace facility.
Officials warn the tank could either explode or spill thousands of gallons of toxic chemicals, triggering what responders called an “environmental disaster.”
Maybe I should post a bookish hot take so the Algo will promote my posts of my new audiobook:
The best books aren't the most technically proficient, polished, or marketable. They are the one's that reflect the human experience back at us.

It's so crazy to see what happened to the Mavs in such a short amount of time... It was supposed to be OKC and SA and DAL for the next ten years... As a native Texan now in OK, I feel ROBBED
