Is this replicable and by which teams? OKC looks unbeatable until they’re beaten. Good game and thanks for the coverage guys.
God is punishing Cavs fans as retribution for JD Vance
Every time you here Danny speak about the Knicks he ALWAYS wants them to be hurt THEY have been hurt and still are good NOT THE CAVS BRO
This wasn't the Spurs best game either, was just as off night as OKC.
This was a great game. I don't want to be critical, because both teams were playing their hearts out. However, I did feel like OKC coach Mark Daigneault was at times outcoached by Spurs coach Mitch Johnson. OKC should have taken a time-out or two when things weren't going well on the court.
Spurs play like shit but still got it done even with the refs letting them get away with a whole lot of fouls
OKC has played one of the easiest schedules in the NBA. Took 2OT to beat Houston, lost to the Spurs. Im not impressed
At the beginning of the season I said the Spurs would not play in the play in which means they would finish top 6 in the West. They laughed at me. Who's laughing now.
There is no neutral site when the Knicks are playing. There's no point to predict the season – it will unfortunately come down to who's injured and who isn't during the playoffs.
Spurs are going to the Finals this year…wait and see the trade they make at the Feb deadline! 1 player of consequence away from rocking the NBA World! Spurs have the assets/…expiring contracts/players and a picks package to do it!
Oy … Every player-commentator on the otherwise professional Amazon Prime post game crew mispronounced Devin Vassel's last name. 😒
For the spurs to recover from that first half is insane, and no one's even mentioning that
The thing that struck me was how shook the Thunder were as the Spurs came back. They definitely need to play some of the better teams before anyone should start calling them "all-time". I mean, double overtime against the Rockets and losing to the Spurs doesn't speak "dominant" to me.
Wemby makes Chet and Hardenstein shrink. I feel Wemby has a psychological advantage now. No excuses, Thunder had no real answer for Wemby. Vassel played his best game as a Spur. I was impressed how Vassel bothered Shay. Fox played great too being aggressive and using his speed. We got a true NBA rivalry all because of Wemby.
Can he not say Ls? Wtf is coorade? Lol
