2026 WEST FINALS: (1) Oklahoma City Thunder Vs. (2) San Antonio Spurs

This is true, but if Harper and Castle continue to grow and prove they are true perennial all-star type players I don't know how much against the cap they will be. Only time will tell.

This is why I'm always against people saying "This new team will rule forever! DECADES!!!" that...that's a lot harder than it seems, it's rare, it's unique, and even the dominant teams of recent eras didn't just pull off 6 straight or 3...or even 2.... Warriors won 4 championships through a span of 4 years. Duncan's Spurs won 5 through 15 years.

There are just so many things that can go wrong for a team on the path to win a championship. I mean everyone last year were saying OKC would win a few but they very well could lose this series, make a panic move, and just never quite get back there again...or someone can get hurt...someone could leave...etc etc

But hey, OKC and SAS definitely at least have the first part down. Being good enough to win. The other part is luck.

 

Ime doesn't do this. The players just point at Sengun

 

LOL. I am praying everyday that OKC would get rid of Chet for a declining Giannis.

 

Agreed, but I don’t think it’s a stretch to say SGA played a low IQ game and it cost them.

 

Klingon to Rockets?

 

How did San Antonio bloat her body?

 

**** U Blazers

 

Not sure that happened, but he's definitely been putting in work mentally and physically. Cannot knock it.

 

Chet and SGA are just awful. I am rooting for the Spurs.

 

Anyone who thinks De'Aaron Fox is “ducking” or that the Spurs are playing lineup games truly does not understand how dangerous that injury play by Ayo Dosunmu was.

Fox basically forced himself to play through the ankle injury in Game 6, and afterward the ankle reportedly responded very poorly with swelling and soreness.

This isn’t gamesmanship. It’s the Conference Finals and he's dealing with a legitimately compromised ankle.

talk about a reporter manufacturing a narrative and arguing with himself

Who thinks Fox is ducking the Thunder? Or that the Spurs are just playing lineup games with him? Huh?

 

I hate how he makes it so hard to hate him. Wemby seems like a dude you'd wanna smoke a dub with and shoot the **** with. He has a much better personality than that of LeBron

 

I don’t see how this proves anything, that side of the mountain dribbling in particular is an insane feat if true.

 

So Lebron was a douche when he was 18?
