Day 39
Record: 43-36
Goddamn this hurts. Jalen “Rottweiler” Williams is being selfish by insisting that he play in these games. KenRich Williams is much better than him. You see it when Rottweiler jogs towards the Spurs’ basket after The Wembanyama tips the ball out of bounds. There’s just an obvious lack of force in Rottweiler’s body and there is a look on his face that doesn’t scream “locked in and ready to die”. Mark Baguette needs to get a clue and leave Rottweiler to just play the “assistant coach” position.
Devin Vassell really blocked Chet like that and looked at him after like he was the class donkey? We’ve been saying that Chet Holmgren needs to be traded and Sam Presti better freaking do that. Chet plays these pathetic games and only allows himself to attempt fadeaway shots whenever The Wembanyama goes to the bench. Who has been in another player’s head more than The Wembanyama has been in Chet Holmgren’s head? It’s out of control.
We stopped watching the game after the turnover from zesty Jared McCain late in the third quarter. Spurs bombed away from three during the first half and it was crazy that the Thunder had the deficit at single digits going into halftime. The broadcast made a concerted effort to not show Elon Musk with the sloppy jalopies behind him. That crowd was insane during the first half and they had every right to be. It’s actually incredible how the arena didn’t light on fire.
Did Elon Musk bring lions into the locker room at halftime to keep the players on edge? Because at the start of the third quarter, the Spurs definitely played like a team that just had their coach unleash a pride in the locker room to keep the “scared for survival” vibes going. Great coaching by Elon. Somehow the lob to The Wembanyama was back online. It was so glaring how the Lob Offense with The Wembanyama is just unstoppable. How are these games happening where it seems like the Thunder have stopped the lob to The Wembanyama?!
Is Dylan Harper really back?! Because he was making shots around the rim. We said that he wouldn’t be able to recover mid-series with an adductor injury but has he?!? This is insane!
Terrible game. Gross to watch the Thunder be that pathetic.
THUNDER ⛈️ (-3.5) over Spurs 🤠
- We were scared that the spread would be something crazy like 6.5, but 3.5?! Yeah, we were ready to stick to the plan at 6.5 but 3.5 is an easy decision. We’re not thinking about each game. We’re blindly taking the Thunder. We’re taking mental shortcuts.
